Share your tomato-growing tips, and win a prize!

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

We are looking for great tomato growing tips and/or photos of your tomato harvest from last year. Do you have a piece of tomato growing wisdom to share with other New Zealand gardeners? Maybe a variety that does well for you, a way to treat or prevent diseases, or a recipe for homemade fertiliser. Or do you have an amazing photo to share ... like this one from tomato enthusiast Minette Tonoli. Email us your tip (mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz) and/or share your pic in the comments... if we publish your tip or your photo we will send you a free copy of NZ Gardener magazine!
