I know very very little about gardening. But I’d like to share the one thing that I think I did right growing tomatoes in Michigan. I have a regular raised garden bed and I take 6-8 of those sign stakes that are 8 ft long and drive them into the ground around the inside edge of my bed. (Evenly spaced) Then I use twine and I weave it back and forth like a giant spider web. I plant my tomatoes and I pretty much leave them alone all summer. Sometime I’ll tuck a branch back into the web, but for the most part, nothing. The tomatoes grow as tall as the structure will allow, and yields tons of tomatoes. This method has proven very fruitful in the 5 years that I’ve been doing it. I don’t know if it’s the best way, but it’s been great for me. Thanks for the videos.

Tomato cages. I have taken up using old scrap gazebos. You know, the kind that you see in the trash constantly because they twist in the wind. I take two of the corner pieces and zip tie them together. This forms a.C shape around three sides of the tomato. I then take a couple of bamboo sticks or old, cheap curtain rods, and zip tie those to the open front side. This helps to support the tomato on the last side while leaving it open enough to prune and pick the tomatoes. I have been doing this now for at least three years and it works wonderfully. Oh, I forgot to say that I put rebar or bamboo sticks up through the base to hold it in the ground. It also looks really pretty.

This year i am doing an experiment. Some indeterminates i will be single stemming, some i will cage with large homemade ones, with only light pruning and controlled height, some i will let sprawl over thick mulch (i learned a lesson with sprawling several years ago). I will also cage some determinates, and some will sprawl. I am also succession starting them, so i can have harvest at different times, instead of one huge haul i cant keep up with. I have some in my greenhouse i started in February that are like 3 feet tall and producing tomatoes, a bunch of large seedlings i am getting ready to plant out, and a bunch of tiny ones which will still wait for a bit (though i did start those pretty late). In addition, i have a couple varieties in a greenstalk: Tiny Tim (a determinate micro dwarf cherry tomato), and Tess' Landrace Currant (indeterminate currant tomato). I will see how this experiment goes. Basically, over the past several years, i have gotten sick of spending all day, several days a week, tying and pruning the indeterminates all season long. At one point i had 80+ tomato plants (lesson learned from that too). So, i decided i would do this and see what i preferred with both indeterminate and determinate. I need lower maintenance these days. Tomato size isn't a priority for us, and production can just be whatever. I have quite a bit of space in my garden, as well, so that isn't an issue. Whatever fits, great, whatever doesn't, oh well, i can rehome. Its just the two of us here. I have also, over the years, decided which types of varieties of tomatoes we prefer. Roma is a staple every year. I dont like working with beefsteak types, and the tomatoes are just too big for us to consume. Plus they take soooo long to produce, grow full size, and ripen. Ace 55 determinate works pretty well, and i like the Rutgers semi-determinate. These will all now be staples. Cherry is also a preference. We like Sweet 100 Cherry, though it can be difficult to get my hands on seeds, so i am working on trying different types of those. Also dwarf and micro dwarf types i am starting experiments on, to see how i like working with them. The fact that we live in the north is significant for these early producers, plus i can potentially grow some indoors throughout the year. So, yeah, learning lots.

Biodiversity of tomatoes is great, only problem is that if you have heirlooms, then you need to keep far away from each other because they will cross, otherwise saving seed is pointless( unless you go into heavy effort to isolate certain flowers from insect pollination)

My worst mistake. Since I'd run out of potting soil and space on my grow shelf, I sowed my tomato seeds in the same pot instead of individual cells. This would have been fine if I'd transplanted them soon after they sprouted, but I was too busy with other things. They quickly grew to over a foot tall and tangled up in each other. You can separate tomatoes when they're younger, but not so easily when they get this tall.
@raul.huertas7 ай бұрын
When flowering and fruiting occur, the tomato plant needs extra fertilizers, specifically potassium. Add calcium if the fruit shows Blackened ends symptoms. Suckers are less likely to produce fruit, especially on determinate varieties, unless you're looking for number instead of quality. It is better to remove them so that the plant uses its resources in flowering and fruiting. The same applies to pepper plants.
@Cocreatewithus7 ай бұрын
What I learned about determinate tomato plants, is each stem (aka sucker, if it's not the first stem) goes to flower at the tip, and then stops. Thats why you don't prune them. Otherwise you will only get a literal handful of tomatoes. It is meant to be more bushy. Indeterminate grows differently; their flowers grow as their own branch on stems every 2 or 3 nodes, and the stem continues growing. It's more viney.

You over-fertilized when you started, while I under-fertilized. I hade this idea 13 years ago when I started gardening that I could grow without spending a penny- save seeds, make my own compost, use the compost for all the nutrients the plants need, etc. Once I learned more about fertilizing, it made a good impact on how well my garden produced.

I notice you dont tease the roots when planting. I always hear to tease them so I'd love to know more.

My tomatoes have persistently developed some sort of wilt. Healthy and gorgeous one day; droopy and wilted the next. Have tried hydrogen peroxide solution on the plants and soil with no results. Here we are again - new season. Any suggestions? We garden organically

For me tomatoes are the most unpredictable. I don’t know why. But giving them fertilizer seems to kill them. Even is very small amount. But if I leave it alone and just water it well, it does do better
