Our Potatogrow potato planter is a great space saving planter which gives you the freedom to plant and harvest the varieties of potatoes you want, when you want.

Gardening Angels in a Vitopod: We kept Natasha and Ashley warm in an 11-layer - yes ELEVEN layer - Vitopod. How high dare you go? On a serious note, extra layers transform your Vitopod into a mini greenhouse. But we did just want to have some fun locking these two wayward characters away for the afternoon!

Perfect for raised beds, borders & veg plots, our Click & Drip is a complete kit that attaches to your water butt to keep plants evenly watered without wasting a drop.

Our Click & Drip is a complete kit that attaches to your outdoor tap to keep plants evenly watered without wasting a drop. The pressure regulator slows the watering down to 1 litre per drip hole per hour, so that the roots have time to take up the water before it forms puddles that evaporate or run-off.

Watch our Gardening Angel Paul, sowing our first Tomato seeds for 2012 in our Greenhouse. In this video he is sowing 4 varieties of tomatoes, Country Taste, Cristal, Sungold and Sungella. The seeds have been transfered over to a heated propagator and in about 3 weeks time we will be able to see seedlings appear and in 8 weeks time, they should be large enough to transfer to seperate pots.

Our Gardening Angel Paul is sowing 5 of our favourite chilli varieties - Fresno Supreme, Ring of Fire, Portugal, Hungarian Black and Joe's Long and we just cant wait to see the results.

These chilli seeds will germinate in our Vitopod Heated Propagator and in 3 to 4 weeks times our chilli plants will be ready to be pricked out into small pots. Once our chilli plants have rooted through, we will be able to transfer them into one of our Chilligrow planters, where we can look forward to producing a bumper chilli harvest.

Perfect for growing tomatoes, the Quadgrow planter produces bigger harvests than plant pots and growbags thanks to the clever way that it keeps plants perfectly watered at all times.

Our handy Windowsill propagator is a clever propagator and salad planter in one which traps warm air, creating the moist atmosphere that seeds need for germination and protects seedlings from draughts and drying out.

Take a look at our latest video on our digital Thermometer & hygrometer to ensure your plants are protected from the effects of frost and humidity related problems.

Unless you are growing tomatoes which are a Bush variety you should remove the sideshoots from your tomato plants to focus your plant's energy into producing fruit rather than foilage. 

A sideshoot is a shoot that grows at about 45 degrees from the main truss (stem) between the leaf and main stem. Take care not to confuse these sideshoots with the trusses which are the stems that produce the flowers, which turn into tomatoes. We find it is better to leave the top few leaves until we're sure they are sideshoots.

Simply pinch the sideshoot out with your thumb and finger.

Remove your sideshoots every week because the sooner they are removed the more energy your plant will out into fruit production.

You will need to secure your tomatoes to a support (whether that's your greenhouse roof, bamboo stakes, a specialist tomato frame or a homemade structure).

Below is a video of Paul, our Gardening Angel, training the tomato stem directly upwards to use the greenhouse roof as the support. You should tie a loop of string around the stem near the bottom of the plant when flowers first appear and then you can gradually twist the plant around the tomato plant stem as the plant grows.
