I have some tomatoes in hanging baskets (Tumbling Bella) and a raised bed (First in the Field). I've been feeding them weekly since they started setting fruit, but with the weather so wet at the moment, I don't want to give them a liquid feed and make them totally waterlogged. I'm sure it'll be fine if they skip a week, but for those of you on the wetter side of the country who have more experience than me here in dry-as-dust East Anglia, do you have any tips in case the rain continues?
Should I bring the hanging baskets indoors to prevent waterlogging? Last time I did that (to avoid blight), we immediately had a heatwave and they struggled in my south-facing conservatory. Hopefully we won't have a repeat of that, but I'm torn!
