Tomatoes grown in a trash can
(Completely revised since critical products are no longer available)
You need a 35-40 gallon trash can.
1 bag of Leaf Gro
3 bags of topsoil.
1 cuft. PRO MIX.
1 3.5 lb bag of Jonathan Green tomato care & vegetable food
Neptune Harvest Fish and Seaweed 2-3-1
1 4.5 lb bag of Jonathan Green Mag-I-Cal
25 pounds Marble chips.
Drill 8-10 ½ inch drain holes into and near the bottom of your trash can. Put
the Marble chips into the bottom of the trash can for
drainage and place the trash can into a place where it receives full sun.
Mix the top soil,Pro Mix and Leaf Gro Also Add 1/2 bag of Jonathan Green
tomato care & vegetable food and the full bag of Jonathan Green Mag-I-Cal
lime thoroughly and fill the trash can with the mixture.
Plant only one small, young Tomato plant (we suggest the “Better Boy”
variety) into each trash can after the danger of frost has
passed in your area. Plant it deep. This will result in a stronger plant.
Place a 54 inch Tomato cage over the plant for support.
Feed your tomatoes weekly with Neptune Harvest Fish and Seaweed
2-3-1.
Water as needed to keep the soil moist. During the summer this will most
likely be daily.
Enjoy your Tomatoes in a trash can!
All products are available at local Independent Garden Centers. Do
not accept substitutes!

this is great! I have never heard of this. Is this good for keeping pests away from the plant? I might try it!
