Why are my various cherry tomatoes growing wild around my gardens so bitter?
The "orrible" taste lasts longer than cod liver oil.
Bitter right at the back of the throat
I have the red northern rivers volcanic soil.
Please help, Im about to give up.
Cant grow a chili in it iether, stunted growth.
I grow all my super hots in pots with a made up black soil.

M Nash, try giving your sour tomato plants some Epsom Salts, that should sweeten them up :-)

I agree Brendan (!!) and also some potash maybe? Pete Cundall recommends it for giving your tom's good flavour...

Have to agree Amanda, tomatoes like both sulphate of potash and a bit of superphosphate. That's what I used on mine to win first prize at the Mackay Regional Show last year :-)
