I'm an odd dad
You can ask her.

I've never kept tomatos before, hence I'm automatically shit.

doesn't matter if you're
a little bit odd. You love your kid and that's all that matters.

As an aside tomatoes grow really well against a wall that gets some sunlight (a few hours a day) but not too much. And a sunshade cloth stretched above them will let water through, stop them getting burnt and will help keep them from folding when it buckets

Mrs Kindly Landlady
said she has some canes for me. Then she'll give me something to help keep tomatos upright.

Yeah I know it's terrible on the eyes
BUT it does a bloody good job.
Don't get more then 40% for your toms or they won't get enough sunlight.
