Tried to grow tomatoes the self watering style last year. They were okay I suppose but not as good as the ones I grew in the bottomless buckets. Due to being a tight wad, I had used strips of old T shirts, cotton blouses etc. I wondered how efficient strips of capillary matting would be in transporting water to the plant and how wide would the strips be best. Also where would the best place be to buy it (hate paying postage). Thanking you for advice in advance.
