Don't forget the leaves and stems of tomato plants are poisonous. They probably wouldn't kill you, unless you ate a load of them (yeeeuk), but it's as well to wash your hands when you've handled them.  |
Those growths at the joints? Would they be called suckers? I remember my grandad picking them off. I used to help him .... remember it being damned hot in the greenhouse.
