We've asked our customers about how to grow the best tasting and healthy tomatoes and they have generously shared their tips!

1. Remove the lower leaves, don't let the leaves get on the ground. Snap out the leaf axil (or the suckers) - these are the leaves in between the stem and the main leaf.
2. "Epsom salts & sheep pallets when they are planted in the hole. I always plant mine on their sides so that there is good root growth to keep them grounded and stable." - Sue JN.
3. Grow them with lots of basil plants.
4. "Crushed eggs for calcium." - Megan KB
5. "Pony poop, lime and regular watering." - Tamzin C.
6. "Fish frames, wood ash, compost, mulch." - Chris A.
7. "Great soil & regular feeding." - Verna P.
8. "Healthy soil with about 2 to 3 basil plants planted around each tomato, consistent watering, once a month feed with lil Seasol." - Kathleen S.
9. "Buy health plants." - Verna P.
10. "Seaweed fertiliser regularly." - Margaret W.
11. "Potassium water. Weekly at least just throw all our banana peels in a sealed bucket and seep like tea a couple of weeks minimum. Right now, I have huge well over a metre tomato bushes." - Kelley H.
12. "Sheep and chicken pellets and regular feeding." - Nik H.
13. "Milk powder. I put a heaped spoon in hole when I plant or you could just dig in around plant. Provides calcium and guards against blossom end rot." - Michele G.
14. "Humate and seaweed off the beach around plants, plant late November to avoid the taste crash with too much rain in the New Year." - Johannes H.
