Any ideas why my greenhouse tomatoes (Alicante and Gardeners Delight) have turned out rather woolly. They taste ok. I thought I'd been careful not to over-water or under-water too and I feed them once a week. They are grown in growbags. If under-watering is the problem, is it too late to give extra water now that the majority of fruits have been formed?

Hi Helen!
They do best if the grow bags are standing up vertically, so basically 1 tom per bag or those pot ring things could give you 2! If horizontal then could be root bound maybe?

I've not had a problem with 3 plants per bag, got a bumper crop last Year, and this year they are looking good too.
