The Levington Tomorite Peat Free Deep Planter is designed for home gardeners looking to cultivate high-yield crops like tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers in confined spaces. Its primary benefit is a nutrient-rich, deep-fill environment that encourages robust root systems and improved moisture retention, though users should note that the 46L capacity requires consistent watering as plants grow and demand more hydration.

While formulated for tomatoes and peppers, the high nutrient content makes it suitable for many other thirsty container plants, though results may vary.
Yes, it is recommended to cut small drainage holes in the bottom edges of the bag to prevent root rot.
The initial nutrient charge typically sustains plants for the first 4 to 6 weeks of their growth cycle.
Yes, the peat-free compost can be emptied and mixed into your garden soil as an organic conditioner for future planting.
Insert cane supports directly into the soil until they touch the base of the bag, or use a wall-mounted support frame if placed against a patio wall.
Ensure the bag is placed on a flat, level surface and that you have not cut the drainage holes too large.
This is normal during extreme heat; check the moisture level of the compost. If dry, water thoroughly in the early morning or late evening.
Ensure all three plants are receiving equal sunlight and that one is not being shaded or crowded by another.
To set up the planter, lay the bag flat in your chosen location—ideally a south-facing patio or a well-ventilated greenhouse. Shake the bag gently to distribute the compost evenly. Cut out the marked planting squares and transplant your vegetable starters carefully.
