Tomatoes! We are getting lots of tomatoes around here. This weekend will be spent preserving the harvest into tomatoe sauce and salsa sauce. I will be trying some lacto fermented salsa as well.
Be sure to check out this great podcast on
Lacto Fermenting your fresh garden vegetables.
It has a lot of great information!
What is keeping you busy this week?
YUM! Love that you're getting so many tomatoes! I don't think I have that many even formed yet but then mine are all late varieties so majority will ripen at the end of August.
ReplyDeleteMy late varieties are not doing much yet either. I tried to plant early, mid and late this year. The mid's are right with the earlies though. I have a feeling the lates will turn out to produce mid, I hope I have some late tomatoes also though
DeleteNo tomatoes here yet, but I see one just starting to turn color, so it won't be long!
ReplyDeleteI even found three or four volunteer plants in a bed that I just made this year. I have no idea how seeds got into that dirt!
DeleteWe have about 28 tomato plants. Only 8 of those were intentional; the rest are transplanted volunteers. Our volunteers are from our compost pile. The seeds get there from our kitchen scraps, I'm sure.
DeleteI need some advice please help can you me and my husband bought a tomatoe plant and its post to be the big hugh ones why isnt the tomatoe getting big and staying small like the size of a cherry tomato and the leaves a little bit of them are brown and not looking very good what am i doing wrong its out in the sun along time how much sun does a tomato plant need.
ReplyDeleteWithout knowing what type of plant you have it would be hard to say. The most important thing I've learned is they need 6-8 hours of sunlight every day and consistent watering. If it's in a pot, the pot may be too small as well.
