Default Tomatoes - taking care



I am so careful when potting on to three inch pots and then the ten
inch pots - handling with kid-gloves.

There was a programme on TV last week about mechanisation/automation
of horticulture - absolutely fascinating.


It was interesting to see the tomatoes being planted in the Channel
Islands - in rows in the fields - as per old days.

Two people - one with a spade made a "slot" - second dropped/threw in
a plant from the bunch in his hand - first person "heeled" in.

Job done!! - next plant !!
