Love to see other gardeners planting tomatoes. I need to try this watering method with pots.

the water method is genius !!!!! mind blown . take a bow blondie . brilliant

I am so delighted to seeing your videos and now I am starting to love growing plants at my home too.

I love your show. Looking forward to the update in these tomotoes. Wishing you all the best for your channel.

When we have our polytunnel finally erected and covered I intend to grow my tomatoes like this, in raised beds in the greenhouse. Thank you for sharing your video... I can't wait to make my terracotta self watering pots 😊

I love you and the tomatoes.

I have used string trellis method for my tomatoes for several years but mine are outside. I have found it so much easier to prune, water, maintain and harvest the plants.

Hi from germany. Our climate is Not so good for growing tomatoes outside as well. But a little roof can help against getting blight top early. I have a little tip for planting in the growbag: remove the bottom leaves and lay them flat into the bag, so the stem can grow roots.

Great video, thanks for sharing 👍

the stems on my tomatoes expand a fair amount, so instead of tying the string to the base i just make a large knot on the end and place it under the root ball making a "U-shape".

Hi I live in the states I'm originally from New Jersey the home of the famous "Jersey" tomatoes, I moved to upstate NY about 10 years ago and have been trying to grow tomatoes ever since. There is a 10 degree difference in the weather even though it's only a state away. Most times I can get a plant to grow around 6 or so tomatoes that's it all season unless they are the cherry variety. My dad used to grow as many as 75 plants at a time we had tons of tomatoes and there is nothing that can compare to a sweet Jersey tomato! Which I so easily took for granted until I moved. They love heat and humidity. Good luck with your tomatoes, I would definitely grow them along that wall they will love that.

Yes they do love the warmth. It’s tricky trying to grow them outdoors here so I’m counting on the greenhouse toms for a harvest and the outdoor ones as a potential bonus :) Have you considered getting a small greenhouse or poly tunnel for your growing space?

Thanks

Hmmmm….. With that string idea, I am going to modify the supports I put in my tomato planters! Thank you! Growing outside.... Yes I had tomato seed sprout, grow a plant, and even got green tomatoes off it in the garden last year! And I live in Newfoundland!!!! Against a south facing wall or in a built sun trap is a good idea to try. A sun trap is a curved wall with the inside of the curve facing toward the midday sun.

Excellent idea 💡 to conserve water. I live in the California desert 🌵 🐫 🌵 and must conserve every drop of precious water.

Mark Peacock great idea did it work well ?

There are a number of blight resistant varieties of outdoor tomatoes available in the UK. Crimson Crush being a very popular variety. Cherry tomatoes grow fantastically well outdoors and are less likely to be affected by blight, as they’re quick to mature. I’m growing a number of varieties outdoors here in Scotland this year and next year I have my eye on lots of short season heirloom varieties. Great video as always. Hope you’re well and enjoying the warmer weather 😊🌱

Lovely Greens I haven’t grown them myself, but Nigel over at Muddybootz raves about them. Apparently the flavour is really good. He’s literally in the middle of trials of 3 varieties. He has a video up just now that may be of interest to you 😊

I grow tomato plants outside in the UK. I have mesh 7ft with bean, nasturtiums and sweet peas. Then tomato plants 18 inch in front. This helps with heat and cold to protect the plants. All top 8ft tall. Sungold take the weather well. Better each year if from own seeds. They retain soil and weather for your garden.

What do you do about Blight?

Wrap your string around the whole root base, it won't restrict the base of the plant from growing a larger diameter.. I could not tell how loose the string was when you tied it. Just thought to mention it.

How is that bag deep enough to support the roots a tomato has to have and the support tomatoes need because their tops get so high and heavy? That sunny wall should work like a charm as I've seen others do that, have other plants die nearby from the cold, but actually overwinter the ones on the wall side.

enjoyed your video I am glad you were able to safe your tomatoe plants that would of been a shame to lose out on all your hard work and thank you for all your tips as well well take care and god bless

Hello there - thank you for a great in depth post on tomato growing. I’m just wondering how many hours sun your greenhouse gets please. I’ve recently built my own greenhouse and want to make sure it’s in the correct place as at this point I can still move it. Many thanks. David.

@Lovelygreens

A greenhouse should get as much sun as you can give it! However, it's better to orientate the long side so that it's facing east/west rather than north/south. If it gets too hot in summer you can drape shade cloth inside the greenhouse or paint the glass with shade paint.

I just built a wooden trough like yours

you can buy organic soil on ebay theres 56 organic nutrients in organic compost

Wonderful! Splendid! I have arranged my greenhouse in your manner, but put the boards on kind of tables, should I make holes in the bottom boards? The boards are 20 cm deep, I mean the tomatoes will have 20 cm deep of compost and manure,should that be enough? On the floor of the greenhouse I poured concrete. Thank you so much!

Great video. I just built a greenhouse and added some tomato plants. They look terrible. I suspect I was watering too liberally on the leaves themselves and caused fungi or something? They're curled up and browning. I'm watering every 2nd or 3rd day depending on how hot the day gets. thoughts? Thanks for any suggestions. (by contrast, my bell peppers and jalapenos are doing great).

Have you heard of aminopyralid poisoning of plants? It’s a herbicide that accidentally gets added to bagged compost through contaminated animal manure. Have a look online for photos of tomatoes affected with it and see if that answers your question.
