Planting Gardener’s Delight Tomatoes

Posted by TopVeg - May 29th, 2007

Gardener’s Delight Tomatoes, delivered on Friday, have been planted out. Gardener’s Delight is a Cordon type suitable for the greenhouse or outdoors. It bears lots of bite-size fruit, ideal for salads and sandwiches and full of vitamins.

There was room for two more growbags in the greenhouse. But the gardening budget prompted a compromise on the growpots, and we adapted some plastic ventilation brackets to fit in the growbag to:

  • lift the plant out of the bag and provide extra growing space for roots
  • provide a reservoir for water
  • allow feeding close to the roots

The remaining plants have been put outside against a southfacing wall. The bricks absorb the heat and act like a night storage unit, keeping the temperature slightly up.
