I still have several pots of Roma tomatoes left-my friend from work-she wants to make sauce with them-so I told her I will bring in some dirt and plant them in buckets down where the tire garden is and they can grow 6 feet tall down there. I was going to lay down landscaping clothe-then a layer of stones from a friend's house-he's going to be getting rid of his stone walkways, then put dirt on the stones about a foot or more deep, use the wood from pallets to make raised beds out of=build some kind of box or something to contain the dirt. I have to first clear the land then measure how deep the dirt will need to be. Then measure how deep. Evidently 1 yard of loam covers 10 foot by 10 foot only 3 inches deep. I will need 5 yards then to make it a foot deep at minimum. I have deer netting to use to keep the rascals out of my plants and just use staking boards to staple it to. This is the project I was thinking about. I want to plant the rest of the Roma plants I have.
Those who plant tomatoes=how far apart do you keep yours?
