We planted some John Dunn variety tomato plants in the planter boxes that had been filled with the Living Earth compost. In the planters we also put basil as this encourages the tomato plant to grow and improves the flavour. We will put basil in some of the tomato planters and not in others to see if we can see and taste any difference.
When you put two or more plants in the same space to work together you call it
companion planting. This is what we do down in our food forest as well.
We have also put a tomato into the green house to see how that one grows compared to the ones outside.
We will keep you posted!!
