Asked a neighbour to switch on my drip water system for an hour last
night, as I was out all afternoon and evening.

Went down to greenhouse this morning and found he had left the tap on
all night! (His excuse, he had a long phone call, then forgot).


BTDTGTTS with our own systems before now.

I promptly stabbed a hole in the side of the grow bags, about half an
inch up, and made sure all the water at that level drianed out,

I put holes in the side of growbags anyway, so as to give some drainage
in case of too much water.

suspect I've got a very wet set of roots now. If I puntcure the bottom
of the bag, I'll have problems watering/feeding so what do I do, if
anything! and what effect will the swim have on the tomato plants?



I think they will be fine. Sure waterlogging of the roots isn't
generally a good idea for any length of time, but occasionally won't do
any harm to the toms - and they slurp up so much water I don't suppose
it will stay in the growbag for long
