Description

Growing tomatoes is easier than you might think, and can be done in a variety of spaces, including on a balcony, indoors near a window or outside in pots. Versatile, cost-effective and delicious, there are loads of reasons you should give growing your own a go.

The Tomato Grower’s Handbook covers everything you need to grow your own and enjoy your plants year on year, no matter what space you’re working with, including:

- Preparing the soil
- Sowing seeds
- Transplanting young plants
- Watering and feeding
- Pruning and propagating
- Tips and tricks to boost your harvest
- Troubleshooting advice for when things don’t go to plan

There is also information on different varieties to try, as well as simple recipes and ideas for preserving a glut, such as homemade passata, green tomato jam, a tomato salad that promises to maximise flavour and even a whole tomato pasta that makes use of the fruit, leaves and stems.
