    So I've started setting up a dripper system in the greenhouse, as last year it was a nightmare to get to the base of the tomatoes to water them. Now, half installed, I realise I'm still gonna have to figure out how to feed them, even if the watering is under control...

    Anyone have any solutions to feeding plants that are set up on a dripper line? Are there food reservoirs for the whole system? Do I have to commit to awkward watering when I want to feed them?

    Take off the lower leaves of the plants. they are necessary at the early stages of the plants' development, but less so as they get taller.
