Grow bag tomato experiment




Last year I took on the upside down tomato challenge.  And those tomatoes grew most wonderfully.  Indeed, two of them survived winter, and are again producing tomatoes.
This year, I decided to try grow bags in order to cram more produce into a small spot.  The results?  Wonderful.....  Next year, I intend to let the soil in my yard rest for the year...and grow bags will replace the ground planted tommies.  Each tomato grow bag can be totally monitored in terms of soil ph or levels of magnesium.  So simple.  The hardest work I've done on these was the painful filling of the bags.  I'm just really not that coordinated.
