Directions for use
Directions for growing tomatoes
- Remove the black insert from the base of the pot. Take out the twelve risers and four support rings.
- Re-fit the black insert into the pot taking care to align the holes in the side of the pot with the raised insert.
- Insert three risers into the holes in the base of the pot.
- Water your plant thoroughly before potting and allow to drain. We recommend one tomato plant per tower.
- Partly fill your pot with Tui Tomato Mix.
- Gently take the plant from the current pot, loosen the root ball and remove any loose or dead plant material and roots.
- Position plant in the centre of the new pot and fill with Tui Tomato Mix up to 3cm from the top. Water well and ensure the reservoir is filled. Water regularly and top up the water reservoir as required.
- Fit the first ring into the risers and as your plant grows add additional risers and rings.
- Fertilise with Tui Enrich Vege, Tomato & Herb Controlled Release Fertiliser.

Tui Tomato Grow Tower reviews

I purchased this tomato tower from our local mitre 10 store. I have found the tower itself to be totally inadequate for tomato growing. It is no where near sturdy enough to take the weight of a full grown tomato plant . It has blown over several times even though - through trial - have placed in a sheltered area. However the weight of the plant itself has caused the flimsy tower to break in parts. Very disappointed.

Clever invention Tui. No mucking about with stakes, stressing about overwatering, easy to lift if you want to follow the sun around your garden. Sustainably made. Ticks all of my boxes. We'll done.
