    You can also cut them completely across the middle into 2 halves which you then stand on-end.  Only 2 plants per bag but useful for things which need deeper roots. :)
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    What's the main difference between grow bag and compost?

    Are they just pre-seeded with fertiliser?

    I've got some leafy home made compost, will that do this year, as I've found sourcing compost/grow bags a hassle/difficult and involves running the gauntlet.

    Are there some compost no nos?  Or anything that the tomatoes really like?

    There's some Ozzie chap that turns up a lot on the youtube recommends, who has huge corrugated sided raised beds for his tomatoes.  With screens/wire support down the middle.  And looks an absolute delight to move about and water.

    Not sure about re-planting in the same beds/soil culture with tomatoes?
