🍅 Location
Tomatoes are southern creatures and love a sunny and sheltered spot. In your greenhouse they are at their happiest!
🍅 Space
Make sure the plants have enough room to grow & bloom. This will also reduce the chance of the tomato plague brewing. Another important tip is to regularly ventilate the greenhouse. A screen door is very handy for this. This also prevents neighbourhood cats from coming into your conservatory to sunbathe and churn up the soil.

🍅 Support
The branches of tomato plants bear a lot of fruit. This creates a lot of weight, so gracefully guide your plants around tomato spirals or attach the branches to the top of your greenhouse with clips for extra support.
