Well here it is..... the first tomato to brave the outdoors -It has been glorious weather here for 2 weeks now and the temptation to start running round the garden thrusting plants into their final home is getting too much lol -so I have decided to set one plant out and see how it copes (I do have fleece on standby for bed time ;-) . If this one stands ok I will get the rest out next weekend.
This one is one I got the other day for 50c and even though he has shrunk again -the rest of his stem actually goes all the way to the bottom of the pot and into the compost in the trough below!
I was reading the other day that if the stems are particularly long you can actually bend them gently so that the stem goes down and then sweeps to the side... not sure I would want to have a go at that one -knowing my luck I would snap it -but its worth knowing I guess.
