Leaning and Lowering Tomatoes, Flooding and Gourds for Fall

[@jefferybarron929]

I do soooo miss Devon. I really enjoyed her take on the farm and farm life. The boiling of the maple, the home garden plot. The pellet smoker to make dinner... Leaning and lowering... Just not the same without her. 😔

[@HomegrownPassion]

Sorry.

[@mikew9468]

Never a shortage of work on the farm, I admire your hard work. 🙂

Great video, very informative, your tomatoes looks so healthy. lots of tips to take from, thanks for sharing 💕👍😍

[@Emeraldwitch30]

Another wonderful video. I watched a different video where a tomato grower lowered the plant as they picked but didn't lean them she circled the vine around like a coil of a snake. I was thinkingvyou could do that but then I remembered there are 2 plants per box. I'm not sure if you could circle one and not the other. But seeing those lovely red tomatoes 😋 made my tummy rumble. Send that rain our way. Lol

[@HomegrownPassion]

That's a neat idea. It may work if the buckets were spaced out a bit. It's crazy how long they can get. Thank you, I've been enjoying the little grape tomatoes. Hope you get some rain and have a great weekend!

[@FensterfarmGreenhouse]

I always drop mine a minimum of a foot on full sized varieties but up to 2 feet on cherry and grape tomato plants. They grow faster. Great instructional video Devon. Chuck

[@HomegrownPassion]

Thanks and good to know. This is our first time growing a lot of cherry and grape tomatoes.

[@TheOtherSideOfAlex]

This is so interesting to see, makes a lot of sense. This is my first season gardening and yall are just so smart and hard working, its really cool

[@ShrEddie0420]

Beautiful footage at the end with the clouds. Great video! Was born in that area but moved to SoCal when I was a toddler. So great to see what it looks like. Thank you!

[@HomegrownPassion]

Thank you! I'd love to have warm weather all year, but I enjoy our seasons.

[@rogerboardman6481]

I have grown tomatoes many years and have never thought of that plant as a vine before.

[@HomegrownPassion]

Neither did I until we started growing them hydroponically. They do very well on the vine crop nutrient formula.

[@JapanFarmingTambayan]

I love farming too

[@cathyc8989]

Love your video's. I've been doing hydroponics on and off for the past 10 years on a very small scale. I find a learn a little more each time I watch you guys.

[@HomegrownPassion]

Thank you very much. That’s longer than we’ve been going, but we have fun trying new things and growing in the winter.

[@body2man2000]

[@onwardandupward-t1g]

we've been averaging 2 tornadoes in upstate NY each year now. It started 4 years ago and prior to that we'd have 1 per 7 years. The wind is constant all year round too.

[@HomegrownPassion]

What is going on? We keep having weird weather too, but luckily not tornadoes. It flooded like this last year, but never this bad since we've been at the farm. We've been getting a very late snow for the past couple springs too. Hope it all settles down.

[@linr7342]

@@HomegrownPassion LOVE your videos. Down here in Arkansas we have also been getting hammered with rain for 4 months now. Some weeks we get 3-4" some only 1-2 but the water table is saturated so it doesn't take much to soak the soil again. We never had this kind of rain before. I am 60 this yr and it is crazy weather. Peace & well-being to you and yours!

[@Ziggazaaaaa]

How many kg per plant? Love, subscribed, sorry for your loss :/

[@hugocnx]

Hi, seems to me you are only lowering the tomato vines and not moving them sideways. Wouldn't that give you more vine length? As long as you have space of course.

[@HomegrownPassion]

We do lean and lower. At the end of the season last year the tomato vines were 52 feet long wrapping around the bottom of the bato buckets. I’ll do a video this year on it.

[@hugocnx]

Awaiting that video.I am not a commercial grower, but I remember that was the MO in The Netherlands, As you may know. Dutch tomatoes are probably the best.....hahaha next to yours of course. 52 feet, that's impressive. Thanks.

[@sidchisle]

How do you keep tomato worms out of the greenhouse? Thank you for your time.

[@HomegrownPassion]

They can’t get into the main greenhouse and so far we haven’t had them in the high tunnel. I get them in my garden. I pick them off and throw them to the chickens.

[@m.b.boyack2228]

Great update. Plenty going on around the place. Do you have any problems with 'Spider Mites' or other insects on your Tomatoes? Cheers.

[@HomegrownPassion]

Thanks! We got white flies on them a few years ago and had to pull the plants a bit early.

[@chartz9561]

Great Video sweetie which HLG group do you have, I see they vary in watts, price etc. Thank you.

[@HomegrownPassion]

[@paulatwood998]

I noticed that you were raising some baskets of flowers for hanging. Do you ever raise any begonias? They are a delicate and beautiful flower.

[@HomegrownPassion]

I have never grown them, but my neighbor gave me a cute little planter with them, so I’m looking forward to watching them grow.

[@JeffJagnecki]

Did cropking supply you the twine device for the tomatoes?

[@HomegrownPassion]

Yes, they come pre-wound with the twin. I think they are 50 cents each.

[@jameschupp2230]

I've got to say, I learn something every video. Thank you! Your videos are always calming! And Thanks for sharing your amazing smile! I'm making a small greenhouse 14ft x 20ft out of some cedar trees that I had on the property. My main focus is Tomatoes #1, and then #2 Green Peppers, along with some hot peppers. I finally got a good amount of green peppers to sprout, but getting them to the next level, was a challenge. I transplanted them in potting soil while they were only about 2 1/2" tall, because they weren't looking very happy, with the leaves starting to yellow, but they are greening up now. But do green peppers always take a long time from seed to start to produce?

[@HomegrownPassion]

Thank you very much. Our peppers seem to take forever in the younger stages. Seems like once summer soles around and the days get hot, then they take off. Good luck and I hope you get some big harvests!

[@jameschupp2230]

@@HomegrownPassion Thank you for your response! I hope so too !!

[@summerbreezefarm]

Wow, you have to much rain and we're going through a drought. I put my order in for rain but not too much please. Great video Devon I've always wondered how this process was done. Planting our tomato plants in the high tunnel on the weekend. Our fence charger died a couple of days ago! We never have any luck with them, they only last one to two years at most. What brand was yours? Have a great day and stay safe! I'll pray you don't get to much rain. 🌼🌸🌷

[@HomegrownPassion]

The weather can always be crazy. We were in a bit of a drought, but now we are in a surplus. Hopefully a little comes your way soon. The fields finally dried out enough yesterday for all of our farmer neighbors to go back out to plant. My fence charger is a Patriot from Rural King. I'm honestly surprised it's still going, but it does a good job. Hope you have a fun weekend planting tomatoes!

[@Tomhohenadel]

Devon, why don’t you compress the potting soil before you plant the gourds.

[@HomegrownPassion]

It seemed pretty compressed after I watered it, before I put the seeds in. Hopefully they’ll come up.

[@Tomhohenadel]

Devon, I wanted your feeling about compressing the soil too much. I compress alot and wondered after seeing you plant seeds in soil that seemed not to be compressed at all. My concern is was I doing this all wrong. My idea was to have a solid mass that would hold together when transplanting. Thanks for your thoughts

[@thomasalexander6883]

Hi Devon! Can you tell me the size of your HLG light? I am thinking it is the small one or 65Watt. My NFT starter kit from crop king is on it's second batch of lettuce :0) I am going to order some 6 foot channels to try in the basement. :0) Thank you for your awesome informative videos.

Yep that’s the one. It’s about $100, but worth it. That’s awesome about your desktop system! The new light is making a big difference on mine. Thank you!

@@HomegrownPassion thank you 😊

[@redangrybird7564]

@@HomegrownPassion if you can implement a system where you can lower the light to about 30cm above the plants, that will increment the amount of light they get. Also you can cover the dark stone walls with some reflective material, like aluminium foil to reflect the light from the walls to the plants. I used to grow plant experiments in closed glasshouses with 24h lights. Good videos, God bless you. 😄✌

So the Dutch bucket tomatoes are not flood and drain? Just watered by droppers?
