A strange way of adding nutrients to your tomato plants!

I've been Money Tipped!
If you have seen my other recent gardening threads, you will find they are about vids by someone called Steve Brookes.

Here is another interesting one that I found which I haven't heard of before, I will have to go and empty the hoover (showing my age now) and give it a try.

That reminds me, I must go and buy some more tomato food too.

    I've always put my vaccy fluff straight in the compost bin, but I can see this might work better if some of the trace elements in it are short lived. Just don't like the visual aspect much! :rotfl:

    Like others with plenty of space, I rely on comfrey for free tomato food. Those big ol' roots can draw up nutrients from a couple of feet down. The visuals with comfrey water are better, but the smell is something else!
