This seemingly simple piece of equipment overcomes two of the major problems of growing tomatoes, that of over watering and blossom end rot, whilst simultaneously doubling the crop produced. Also when growing peppers, aubergines or dwarf beans it gives you an increased yield without the daily requirement of watering.
This is the first in a a series of films on how to grow superb annual flowers and I am absolutely delighted to welcome Benjamin Ranyard of Higgledy Garden.com. Ben is an expert in hardy and half hardy annuals and its the fastest way to had colour and height to your garden. In fact one of Ben’s collections which costs less than £20 would give you more than enough flowers for the average sized garden. I hope you enjoy this film keep watching as we will be doing updates and you can grow along with us.
This second film shows the amazing germination and growth that the hotbed generates after only a few weeks while growth in the normal beds at this time of year is nearly at a standstill, or at best just starting.
