Fix the code so i can make the window larger and the fields increase size

Code:

import tkinter as tk
from tkcalendar import DateEntry
from openpyxl import load_workbook

window = tk.Tk()
window.title("daily logs")
# window.resizable(0,0)

# labels
tk.Label(window, text="Bar code").grid(row=0, sticky="W", pady=20, padx=20)
tk.Label(window, text="Products failed").grid(row=1, sticky="W", pady=20, padx=20)
tk.Label(window, text="Money Lost").grid(row=2, sticky="W", pady=20, padx=20)
tk.Label(window, text="sold by").grid(row=3, sticky="W", pady=20, padx=20)
tk.Label(window, text="Failed date").grid(row=4, sticky="W", pady=20, padx=20)

# entries
barcode = tk.Entry(window)
product = tk.Entry(window)
money = tk.Entry(window)

# arraging
barcode.grid(row=0, column=1)
product.grid(row=1, column=1)
money.grid(row=2, column=1)

options = tk.StringVar(window)
options.set("Peter")  # default value
soldData = tk.OptionMenu(window, options, "Peter", "John", "Mary", "Jonatan", "Steve")
soldData.grid(row=3, column=1)
cal = DateEntry(window, width=12, background='darkblue', foreground='white', borderwidth=2)
cal.grid(row=4, column=1)


def readValue():
    excel_barcode = barcode.get()
    excel_product = product.get()
    excel_money = money.get()
    excel_sold = options.get()
    date = cal._date
    print(date)
    data = [excel_barcode, excel_product, excel_money, excel_sold, date]
    workbook = load_workbook("dailylog.xlsx")
    worksheet = workbook.worksheets[0]
    worksheet.append(data)
    workbook.save("dailylog.xlsx")
    cleardate()


def cleardate():
    barcode.delete(0, 'end')
    product.delete(0, 'end')
    money.delete(0, 'end')


# button to trigger actions
button = tk.Button(text="SUBMIT", command=readValue).grid(row=5, pady=20, padx=20)
button = tk.Button(text="CLEAR", command=cleardate).grid(row=5, column=1, pady=20, padx=20)
window.geometry("500x400")
window.mainloop()
