The Tale of Two Tomatoes

I got around to editing The Tale of Two Tomatoes video yesterday so here it is.

It's a bit rambly but I hope it makes enough sense.

Bottom line is I hope I get some tomatoes this year.

The tale of two tomatoes is about overwintering two tomato plants grown from cuttings taken from two self-sown tomatoes to see if I can get a jump on the tomato growing season.

That was very timely Stuart.

I live in the cold south (Adelaide). Well it has been cold this winter with a couple of frosts and patchy rain but I have a tomato that over-wintered. In fact the plant was better in the winter than summer (way too hot) but the leaves did get a bit grotty so I cut them right back....and I was wondering what to do next...Thanks Stuart I'll see what happens next : )

BTW Does the copperoxychloride (one word?) harm the bees?

Hi Angela, I glad you've found it useful and timely. Best of luck with your tomatoes.
We're going into a super cold (for us) period over the next week so I hope they hang on just a little bit longer.
As for bees, I'm not aware of any problems but I wouldn't spray when bees are present.
