Out with the old - before in with the new

Like many growers, we are curently busy with pulling out our old Tomato crop, and will be frantically preparing for the arrival of the new plants in a couple of weeks time. 

Our fantastic Certificate III Horticulture students put in an amazing effort today to clear our larger compartment of all of the old foliage and growing slabs, before we commence the cleaning process tomorrow.

 

The task commences!

The green waste has all gone to a recycling depot, and we will be milling up our old growing slabs for secondary use as a mulch.

 

Getting there.....

 

Preparing for washing....

Our new crop will feature a wide range of De Ruiter Tomato varieties as we continue to develop the 'Living Prooof Centre' concept with De Ruiter Seeds. We'll update the blog with more pictures when the new plants are in!
