If there’s one thing I’ve learnt over the years it’s that less is not always more. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise especially when you’re buying a whippy ice cream. Always buy the largest!
And this is just my portion ...
Now
let’s apply that thought to my tomato plants.
Here are some growing happily in their plastic troughs. I have to admit they’re puny looking and not
exactly bursting with tomatoey health are they?
The Mr Puniverse of the tomato world
And
here are my other tomato plants. These
were transplanted into the new deeper wooden planters built from decking
planks.
Just look at the difference a bit more depth has made to them. The plants have now got more root room and more composty goodness to grow in so as a result have shot up taller, produced bigger lusher leaves and lots more baby tomatoes.
Move
over vanilla, planter production is flavour of the month with another 3 joining
those already in service.
Please sir, can I have some more?
Line your planters to protect the timber Two coats of garden/exterior paint on the outside Bargain bucket paint does the trick
You can never have enough planters

Sorry
got to run, I think I hear the chimes of the whippy van in the distance ….
