Dear Garden lovers,
This year at DIGS we're hoping to get more education on how to maximize our harvest of tomatoes and cucumbers! To that end, here are some quick, easy-to-understand videos showing how to remove the side shoots and train the plant upward on string supports. They are all by Charles Dowding. Enjoy!
1. Planting tomato plants; with their strings planted with them (video)
2. Side-shoot removal for tomatoes and training cucumbers/eggplant while they grow upward (video)
3. Cordon cucumbers; training them up and over in the polytunnel (video)
Hopefully these time held methods above will help us get larger yields in these popular crops. Comments and video links welcome!!
