Shoots and leaves...
The whims and woes, highs and lows, of trying to grow fruit and veg in Nordic latitudes.
Mum was asking about pricking out tomatoes. Usually this only needs to be done on greenhouse-grown vine tomatoes and most of the container-grown tomatoes are dwarf or bushy varieties so you don't need to worry about this. In this photo you can see how a small shoot is sprouting out at 45 degrees where a leaf branches off from the main stem (inside the red circles). That is what you need to prick out.
