  • My tomato plants which I am growing on the window sill have some leaves which curl downwards but are not discoloured. What could be the cause please !
  • I am growing tomatoes in my conservatory, the instructions state I should remove leaves up to the first truss when they are 120cm tall - what is the first truss??
  • First truss is the first 'branch' up from ground level where the flowers are
  • I purchased three tomato plants from a market. Dunno what type they are but I planted them outside in my small garden and they seem to be growing nicely. The previous postings have been helpful but I never know which leaves to discard in order to improve the tomato. At what stage do I 'nip-off' the top growth foliage?
  • please advise on the correct pot size when using ring culture
  • When & how often do I start to feed my tomatoes.They have started to flower now. Many thanks.
  • I have a 13" pot. How many tomato plants can i put in. Also do i feed when they start flowering
  • Danny, I have read somewhere that it's time now for you to feed the tomato plants after they have flowered, and feed regularly about twice a week, in the evening, and not during the heat of the day. Dunno if I am accurate with that bit of info, and I stand to be corrected. Remove any leaves from ground level up to the first truss.
  • read the link on joyfultomato co author states that for HUGE crops remove all leaves save three or four. has anyone tried this and found success
  • Hi! I am in the process of doing exactly this 8 different tom plants in the greenhouse,so far they are all doing quite well.Another 4 plants still with all their leaves on ,are nowhere as tall and only flowers on the odd plant.Having paid $20 for this info is it wise to give the information for free
