It's been 2 weeks since we planted the first of our tomatoes in a trial method. Today I removed all the milk jugs in order to water and was able to compare their growth.
The first set are 3 heirloom Sun Gold cherry tomato plants. All three have grown very vigorously with no obvious difference, see photos below.
#1: Covered
#2: Uncovered
#3: Covered
The second set are heirloom Brandywine Tomatoes. There are striking differences in their growth, with the covered plants being much larger than those left uncovered, as seen in the photo on the left where the 2nd and 4th tomatoes are already visible peeking above the black pots.
#1: uncovered
#2: covered
