[@Gleichtritt]

As a tomato grower (hobby ofc) I can only recommend: Don't be impatient in the end. I know we all want to harvest the tomatoes and then we trick ourselfes to believe that its ready for harvest. But no - it should be red. Why? Because otherwise it tastes like in the supermarket. The amazing thing about home grown tomatos, is that you can let them on the plant until they are really ripe and oh my gosh, the taste is divine. My brother and me both had tomato plants. He picked his quite early and he was very surprised, how sweet and fruity mine were. Often he told me "but they are ready, why don't you pick them?" "No" I said, "they need to be red". I left them easily 3 extra weeks. So worth it :).

[@Nick4b11]

This is why I’m growing some lol I want that taste instead of the bland supermarket kind

[@christrickett3291]

I am up to 2 weeks on my balcony, all hit and miss really, planted about 8 different things and waiting to see what comes of it.

[@Gleichtritt]

@@christrickett3291 just google a bit about the plants needs and it will make u happy. What ph level do they need, do they sproud in the dark or light? How much nutrients do they need? Generally plants need Nitrogen as long as they grow green and stick material. When they start to get flowers and then fruits: Potassium and Phosphorus (its called NPK system).

[@sroberts6940]

@@Nick4b11 so the bland supermarket kind are picked in the mature green stage (taste profile not fully developed), hard and don't bruise during shipping...then when reached the sale destination they are gassed with ethylene to make them turn red...tomatoes should be picked when the reach breaker stage...at this point the tomato fruit is sealed off from the stem and has turned more than 50% red (tomatoes ripen from bottom of fruit to the stem)...pick them at this stage and place them in a cool semi-dark area away from direct sunlight. they will produce their own ethylene gas for ripening...and you will have a wonderful tasting tomato...AVOID TOMATOES GROUPS AT THE STORE STILL ON THE VINE AND BRIGHT RED...THESE TOMATO "VINES" ARE CUT IN THE MATURE GREEN STATE, FLAVOR PROFILE IS NOT FULLY DEVELOPED AND GASSED TO TURN RED...HENCE BLAND TOMATO...

[@TheMash84]

As a home grower I've found this video is amazing! Thank you very much for doing this :) I'm growing tomatoes as well, S. Marzano, but it's nor heirloom, it saved the seeds from supermarket's tomatoes! Probably it's a hybrid, let's see! Seedlings germinated in 4-5 days and now they're 5cms tall. Finger crossed :) To have more tomatoes it's probably better to switch the fertilizer which is higher in potassium than nitrogen, so the plant can concentrate on producing fruits. Also to fruit they need a little bit higher temp (24-28) and also a huge amount of light! (21 DLI)

[@rapidlapse]

Great to hear, all the best! Keep me updated :) I grow just for fun, to record timelapse of their evolution. I used fertilizers and also had plant lights but at one point I over-watered and it took a few days just to recover from it. In the end it had a few fruits and many flowers so it was all worth the wait I guess.

[@Daniele63]

How did they grew ?

[@sroberts6940]

Hope this dispels some myths; 1.) heirloom seeds are open-pollinated varieties that have tested true to type through time by growing successfully in a region for many generations. They also have cultural relevance and importance. As time passes, more varieties will fall into the “heirloom category.” Heirloom seeds are not always the best choice for growing in difficult conditions like extreme weather or short seasons. 2.) Open-pollinated seeds naturally cross with forces of nature like pollinators, insects, and wind. Their offspring tends to be true to type (similar to parents) and stable. All HEIRLOOM seeds are open-pollinated. Interestingly (and somewhat confusingly), not all open-pollinated seeds are recognized as heirlooms because they are new offspring of plants. But with time, they can be considered heirloom. 3.) hybrids are “cultivars that are produced by human interaction and manipulation.” A hybrid is a cross between two or more unrelated inbred plants that produce an unstable offspring, which means that in nature, these two plants could breed together but typically do not, and human involvement helps this process along. Hybrids are not genetically modified and pose no environmental or health issues. Modern agriculture is built on the use of hybrids for their uniformity and productivity.

[@sroberts6940]

your comment about switching to a fertilizer higher in potassium...you should have a good understanding of the difference between NPK and NPK RATIO TO DETERMINE % BY WEIGHT OF THE NPK...The following will help you convert to % P and % K: Commercial fertilizer usually have PK in the following forms: Phosphorus Pentaoxide P2O5 consists of 56.4% oxygen and 43.6% phosphorus by weight. To get the % P value, multiply the reported NPK value by 0.436, or approximately half of the reported value. K2O consists of 17% oxygen and 83% potassium by weight. To get the % K value, multiply the reported NPK value by 0.83. Using this information you can see that a fertilizer NPK number of 10-10-10 contains 10% nitrogen, 4.36% phosphorus, and 8.3% potassium. These conversion numbers will help you determine the correct amount of fertilizer to add to your garden so that you meet the soil test requirements. PLANTS USE NPK NUTRIENTS IN THE FOLLOWING CONCENTRATIONS FOR OPTIMAL GROWTH 3-1-2...

[@johnparker4302]

If you plan to grow fruit bearing plants indoors dont forget to manually polinate. I see these videos and always see amateur gardeners comment their opinions about why they dont reach full fruit production indoors when the answer usually boils down to a lack of pollination. There are no pollinators indoors so obviously its a process that needs done by hand. Fortunately tomato plants are double sex plants. They produce male and female flowers so it can pollinate itself. To manually pollinate a tomato plant wait for the flowers to reach peak growth than give your plant a gentle shake (before watering not after). This will release the pollin into the air and increase the likelihood of self pollination. Do this a few times as new flowers form. Pollination is very important in fruit production and significantly increases yield. Otherwise your plant will only produce parthenocarpic fruit. Happy gardening.

[@rapidlapse]

I pollinate using paint brush but not all flowers turned into fruits :)

[@meows_and_woof]

To get more fruit you need to cut some of the branches and leaves so the plant can put resources into growing more fruit.

[@rapidlapse]

Thanks for the suggestion. I should have done that to get more tomatoes. :)

[@kize32]

Amazing. I love how you ate the tomato at the end hehe

[@rapidlapse]

Thank you 😀

[@Rascal455]

Hahaha i was dying laughing at this. One fruit! And you were pumped about it. Good on you!! Soooo in order for you to get a much better harvest i would cut more suckers off the crotch of the branches so it doesnt spend all its energy on leaves vs fruit. Also one BIG thing to help you is that tomatos have male and female in the flowers so can self start the tomatoes, however they require movement. When planted outside in the wind thats what happens. But since you did this indoors you will need to simulate wind or a bumble bee. I use an electric toothbrush to shake the flowers and boom much more fruit. Good luck.

[@rapidlapse]

Thanks, I know this might be the lowest ROI as far as harvesting goes 😁 but it was a fun project! I did use paint brush to manually pollinate the flowers. It’s not shown in the video. I’m working on more plants right now. Hopefully you’ll get to see better harvests in the upcoming videos :)

[@briancorea9735]

Its a determinate plant. U dont cut off any branches. But the fertilizer had to be higher in potassium instead of nitrogen to get more fruits. And definitely more light

[@rapidlapse]

@@briancorea9735 thanks, I will be careful about these things next time so I can have better and faster yield.

[@Rascal455]

​@Brian Corea ah yes. I didnt see that, im so used to cherry tomato plants being indeterminate nice catch. Never grown tiny tim before. I usually grow sunsugars and sungolds and of course the classic supersweet 100s.

[@Pyrolonn]

The mission of getting a time lapse (which has to be indoor in a controlled environment) is at odds with the mission of getting a lot of tomatoes. And of course you only need one to show how a tomato fruit develops.

Do we have to watered daily

[@rapidlapse]

It depends on the pot size. You should water just enough so that the soil is not too dry. Over-watering is worse than under-watering. For the pot I used, I was watering every other day i.e. 3-4 times per week.

[@Mongaux]

I live in the Philippines and water it everyday, any specific tips you have for me?

[@rapidlapse]

Watering depends on many factors. If the plant is in garden (not container) where it gets plenty of sun you can water daily without problem. If it is in a container, take caution do not overwater. It can cause root rot. That’s what happened in my case. Only water when the soil looks dry.

[@farha2125]

You said you watered it when it's required. How should I water it perfectly? Any suggestion?

[@rapidlapse]

Soil should be moist but not drenched/soaking wet. Under watering is better than over watering. If you under water, the soil will look dry and leaves will start drooping. You should water more if you notice that. On the contrary leaves will go yellow and fall off if over watered continuously. That is due to root rot. My suggestion would be to water little by little and observe what happens. It’s a balancing act but not too difficult.

I’m currently growing tomatoes,after 71 days I have around 14 tomatoes per seed , i focus on the plants a lot to get more yield , I guess the main thing was to take of the (legs) so between the stem and the main leaves I pluck the legs that grow out the stem so the the plant can focused more on the tomatoes and also helps the plant to grow up instead of outwards.

[@WilliamGA]

What you are taking off are called the "suckers" and you should only pluck it the first feet of the tomato plant, the suckers can turn into flower stems and therefore you would get more tomatoes. Dont pluck them unless the plant gets out of control.

[@BlueLineofthesky]

@@rapidlapse thank you for your answer. So ypu say that a plant can make flowers under a 5k led? I ask because on internet is so much contradiction. ..

[@rapidlapse]

It might depend on the type of LED used. If you see my marigold and zinnia flower timelapse videos, they were grown under the 5000K LED. But I also had another LED light a long time ago that didn’t work. To find which one works is a bit of trial and error. If you are looking for guarantee just get a plant grow LED instead. They are certified to grow plants.

[@BlueLineofthesky]

@@rapidlapse Thank you. I was hoping I do not need to buy grow lights. They are expensive and you need a lot of them if you have many plants.

ONCE YOUR TOMATO SEEDLING DEVELOPS TRUE LEAVES YOU NEED TO START TO FERTILIZE. DO NOT use fertilizer in your seedling mix...the seed has enough nutrients to support DEVELOPMENT AND LIFE. Just keep soil mix slightly moist...CLEARLY AT THE (0:57 mark) your true leaves are yellowing because of lack of nitrogen in your soil. YOUR FLOWERS WERE NOT FERTILIZED...THAT IS WHY THE FELL OFF AND LACK OF FRUIT... GET YOURSELF ULTRASONIC POLLINATOR FOR YOUR PLANTS AND SHAKE THOSE FLOWERS YOURSELF.

Just needs more sunlight, probably some fertilizer and a bigger container. I think Tiny Tim is indeterminate tomato plant which needs the suckers plucked off to place more energy on the flower/fruit energy as opposed to the leaves. You’re doing an amazing thing and got me interested in trying this strain! Currently I am Growing Roma, Black Cherry, Cherry Falls, and another one I can’t seem to remember along with my jalapeño plant. Thanks again for sharing these!

[@13strandquistc]

Tiny Tim is a determinant dwarft tomato, so pruning suckers wouldn't have done anything. If I had to guess, it's that growing indoors without a lot of airflow means that some flowers don't pollinate. In the video it shows quite a few flowers that didn't become fruit

[@abaddon2148]

tiny tim is determinate, if he cut off the suckers he would've halved his harvest.

[@UnfiltredReview]

What I Do This type of tamato

[@MARTINREN1231]

my cherry tomato is too tall with only two leaves now. am i doing something wrong? its still at a 2 leaf stage but its about 2-3 inches tall. Do i add more soil or do i adjust something? Note, its leaves are still small

[@ohnoao9847]

They call it leggy when your starts stretch really tall because they are searching for a light source. This can be corrected easily by adding more dirt to your pot. You can add as much dirt as you want so long as you don't cover up those leaves, also keep leaves from touching soil to prevent diseases. The coolest thing about tomato plants is all the little hairs you see on the stem are potential roots so the more of the stem you bury the stronger the main stalk will become.

[@ohnoao9847]

Another thing you can do to help your tomato is to take used egg shells, rinse them out, microwave for 2 minutes to kill any potential salmonella, then grind up the shells as fine as you can and use in your soil for extra calcium. Tossing a small handful of eggshells in the planting hole when you transplant it helps ensure you don't get blossom end rot when it fruits. Tomatoes are heavy feeders and need lots of nitrogen, but not too much. There's lots of organic ways you can feed your plant at home from kitchen scraps or you can buy at the store. The store bought is better only because you know how much of each nutrient is in it, whereas homemade is a crap shoot. Your best bet is to get an all purpose like a 10-10-10 and feed every couple of weeks. Follow the directions on the package also when they're younger go slow and low on amounts which you can easily do by diluting what you've already got. There's nothing wrong with synthetic fertilizers and they're more beneficial then organic because they're usually water soluble instant feeders whereas organic is a slow feeder, which is more for the soil then the plant.

[@Coliath__GamingXx]

for me it took 5 day's to germinate... how low did you plant it

[@rapidlapse]

Not low. Maybe about half an inch. The seed I used was too slow.

[@Sir-us2ff]

whats the average temperature for good product?

[@rapidlapse]

These grow well in the summers. I filmed during winter, indoors at room temperature around 18-25C. I’d recommend planting before summer is about to start so that you can harvest throughout the summer months.

Thank you very much for sharing this... So much appreciated your effort 🙏🏻

[@najamdesigns]

how often shall I water them? Its spring season here I think

[@rapidlapse]

I watered every other day. Just make sure soil is never too dry. If planting in a pot, over watering has it’s own problem (as shown in my video) so water only when needed. If planting outside in the ground, the extra water will be soaked away so you can water as much as you like.

[@netherwolves3412]

In a pot I have found it it much much better to under water. The problems from under watering are easy to see and fix, but if you water too much you can get all sort of problems like fungus gnats that will devour your plant’s roots and are almost IMPOSSIBLE to get rid of.

[@rapidlapse]

+1, if you are unsure I suggest underwatering rather than overwatering. If you overwater you can’t even see the bad effects like root rot until it is too late. The plant will be stressed by that time. If you underwater the soil will appear dry and the plant’s leaves will start to droop. Give it some water and it will be back to normal within a few hours. :)

Tomato plants need sunlight (indirect sun is fine too) but for the most part in this video I used LED lighting that’s similar to the plant grow lights. As long as the artificial lighting can match the light wavelength that plants naturally get from sun, they will grow.
