Love tomatoes? Want some pro tips about growing them?
This was perfect timing! I just came in from a long planting session. After two friends took me to lunch, and then I did an errand for me and a friend at Natutral Grocers, I went plant shopping. Home Depot had some flowers on sale. Hence I expanded my purchase 4 fold but only spent twice as much. As I had lost several plants these last few weeks wind and heat may have been the culprit, though I am not sure, I sought out some replacements and some new varieties. Home depot had some of each, and a better selection than recent visits.
I got done planting about 10:10 PM. The wind managed to blow away two sets of rain clouds this evening. I had hoped that these new plants would get their beloved ioned rainfall. So When the stars replaced the clouds, I took my trusty hose and watered away.
Chuck Bartok may not be growing tomatoes in NM, but he has a long history of growing tomatoes. His video is fun and has many parts. It is really worth watching, and tell your friends. I have four tomatoe plants. Two are tall organic golden cherry or maybe plum tomatoes. One has 2 small oval shaped fruits. The other two smaller plant are some variety of red tomato. Maybe a big boy. My production hasn’t ever come near to Chuck’s production.
Check out the video. Your plants will thank you. He has lots of good tips.
