growing tomatoes question

Post: # 70747Post ChocolateCosmos »

If you live in the UK you will not be able to grow tomatoes even if you have a greenhouse. The light levals will be too low and there will be too little sun plus there will not be enough day-light hours. Better to wait until next year when you can start your seeds early. I started mine on Feb 1st and got a fing crop of indsoor toms.
