I love your channel I'm growing burner boys, champion plus, celebrity girl. Heirloom tomatoes Black Kem. They all in bed. I love the idea of putting them in pots. What type of trellis are you using in the background? Live the water idea for water moisture of I heard cattle metal arch where can I find that?
@ChristasGarden16 күн бұрын
Cattle panel is actually used for livestock, but it can also be used in the garden! You can buy it at Tractor Supply Company or a place like that. We were able to fit the panels in a truck bed, but we had to bend them in arch shapes and tie them down We drove home on backroads. I usually grow a couple of tomatoes in containers every year but this year I needed to get them all up and off the ground. I have a black walnut tree near my garden, black walnut trees produce a substance from their roots called juglone, it kills off many kinds of plants, including tomatoes. It has started to take a toll on my plants. I hope to have it cut down by the start of the next growing season. I actually prefer to grow tomatoes in the ground. I have clay soil and mulch my entire garden. I rarely have to water my in-ground tomato plants, and only fertilize occasionally. I have grown a couple of your varieties. Have a great growing season!

Those terracotta watering spikes are very interesting 👍 I put the bottles directly into the containers but the spikes are a good solution. You have a great variety of tomatoes 🍅 I do not even know the name of my favorite tomato plant because I got it on a plant swap. The guy had just written 'Tom' for tomato 🍅 on the pot 😀 Have a great growing season 🌱🍅🌱🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🌝

I also grow a nameless tomato variety every few years. The seeds were supposed to be Vintage Wine but it's something else. We will see how the spikes go. I think they will be helpful in the hottest part of summer. Thank you for watching and commenting!

They probably won't die but you will have stronger plants and better melons if you plant new ones. If your plants are young, you won't be losing much time, and it will be worth it.

@ChristasGardenАй бұрын
You can start them from seeds now, they don't take long to germinate. I can't remember how long they took but I think it was less than a couple of weeks. They may not produce fruit this year, but they will next year, it will depend on the variety and when you get them planted out.

I’m so jealous. My lettuce and choi starts bolting in feb-early March. I tried every variety heirloom and hybrid, heading and leaf in different parts of the garden. I tried even growing in the shade or covering with row cover. They would grow but I can only harvest young outer leaves once or twice then they get bitter, milky and bolt. I have tried in spring, fall, summer and winter. Thank God for farmers markets but I still want to plant and harvest successfully. - N. Cali zone10a

Daffodils have seed pods beneath the bloom. Can you cut these pods and make new daffodils bulbs?
@ChristasGardenАй бұрын
You can save the seeds from the pods and sow them, eventually they will grow into a bulb that produces flowers. You might want to do some googling and find out the process. I would assume it takes a few years from seed to bloom. If you have more than one daffodil variety planted, you may get a new variety due to cross pollination. It might be fun to try!
