I'm just about to try this myself in a few weeks, Allan, so I'll let you
how it goes. I think it could solve the problems I've had growing bush
tomatoes in my greenhouse which are mainly the build up of fungus disease
because they sprawl too close to the ground. I grew India last time, but
I'm ready to plant out a low acid variety as a trial.
