If you want to get brilliant results from your new garden guru tomato plants then there are a few secrets to success.

Plant into a red tick potting mix like Thrive Premium Potting Mix, even if it is in the ground. Use 5 litres per plant and it gets them growing madly.

Feed your tomato plant weekly with Thrive for Fruit and Flowers as this encourages massive growth and huge crops of large fruit.

Lastly mulch the soils surface with cow manure - it is incredible mulch that stimulates fantastic growth. It reduces weeds, evaporation and feeds the plant too.
