The tomatoes on the right were grown in close proximity to the disappointing 150 sq ft 1448 Bongers plant. Comparing these to the normal sized giant tomatoes on the left, I can see that despite some effort the soil has not been dialed correctly here. Indeed, the pumpkins all failed to achieve a normal & sustained growth rate. The beans produced minimally as well. I dont know what the culprit is. The only symptom is small fruit... and there should have been plenty of potassium and calcium. Could it all just be poor soil biology?
