How to use a Tui Tomato Grow Tower

Do you have limited space in your garden or only have paved areas? Look no further, the Tui Tomato Grow Tower is going to be your new best friend! 

The Tui Tomato Grow Tower is a self-watering, easy way to grow and support your Tomatoes. The tower is extendable, moveable and easy to set up. Your Tomatoes will grow up to 1.5 meters. 

What you will need: 

- Tui Tomato Grow Tower

- Tui Tomato Mix 30L 

- Tui Tomato Liquid Superfood

- A Tomato plant of your choice

How to assemble the tower: 

Remove all the parts that are in the base of the tower. This will be the black insert, the twelve risers and four support rings. Re-fit the black insert into the pot, making sure it is secure, and the holes are aligned. There is two ways you can assemble the tower. One can be assembling all twelve risers and four support rings together at one time or as the Tomatoes grow, assemble each tier to the height your Tomatoes are growing at. 

Planting your Tomato plant into the tower: 

Fill the base with water. Grab your 30L Tui Tomato Mix and fill half into the base. The 30L will be used for one Tomato Tower. Thoroughly water your Tomato plant before potting and allow to drain. Carefully remove the Tomato plant from the current pot, loosen the root ball and remove any loose or dead plant material. Place the Tomato plant in the centre of the towers base and use the rest of the Tui Tomato Mix to cover the Tomato plant. Water the soil regularly but not the leaves and make sure the self-watering reservoir is filled up when required. 

Fertilise with Tomato Tui Liquid Super Food: 

Shake bottle well before use. You will need a 9L watering can. Use 1/2 cap (20ml) for seedlings to when first flowers appear and use 1 cap (40ml) for first flowers to end of fruiting. Apply weekly over foliage and drench soil. 

Do not apply when the soil is dry, and the temperatures are hot. 

Now sit back and watch the magic grow, Happy Tomato growing!
