@emsapowell Thankyou! This is my 2nd year gardening kinda serious, im still
learning too and its a fun, healthy hobby! I like it also because its not
very expensive and theres no risk of injury like dirtbike riding or other
things. Thanks for watching!
Your garden is so amazing! I really love your tomato cages, is it just
fencing you use? Also do you prune your tomatoes or remove any suckers or
just let them all grow? I can’t believe how tall they get! Awesome!
@field16 Thanks! I’m not sure if cherry maters r supposed to taste so diff
from reg maters, but these lady bugs are 70% the taste and texture of a
table grape, 15% the taste of a strawberry, and 15% a reg large tomato
flavor. I plan on growing more cherries next year, Sun Gold and Gardener’s
Delight have gotten alot of good reviews on the net and are supposed to be
super sweet. And yeah im hoping the 2 months left of warm weather will let
the zukes and melons produce a harvest.
things are looking great! I have so many things I wish I’d done differently
this year…lol First year learning curve… next year will be better I
hope. You have a nice looking garden there!
hi, yep its 5′ tall fencing wire wrapped into circles. i do remove the
tomato suckers for the first few feet, but then i let them go wild because
they start to grow out the top of the cages. one year i might try to grow a
50 foot long tomato plant and remove every single sucker. lol
Man you have an AWUSOME garden!!!!. i need to get me some of those cherry
tomatoes…plus those turnips are HUGE.. i am going to try my luck with
them..my grandmother has a pickling recipe that i want to try…keep up the
good work man…
Tomatoes that taste like a cross between green table grapes and
strawberries!? Wow… never thought of a tomato like that. I guess I don’t
know what that flavor is. I like your optimism about the length of time
left to grow this summer since you are still planting. I think many people
give up too soon, but I see you are still at it. Amazing turnips, peppers,
and tomatoes! I really enjoy seeing your garden.
Great update Bubble!!!…Everything is looking fantastic!!…those cherry
tomatoes sounds great!!…And i love the look of those big Corno
Peppers!!..Keep up the good work!!…cant wait till your next update!
Your garden looks so good! Wow lady bug tomatoes?? I will have to check
them out. Have you ever had the purple cherry tomatoes? Im going to have to
look online to see were i can get those lady bug tomatoes!
@dulce3tat Thanks! I havent tried purple ones yet but I do plan on trying
more cherries next year. Sun Gold and Gardener’s Delight are supposed to be
2 of the sweetest cherry tomatoes out there. I got the Lady Bug seeds from
Park Seed, they were on sale for about a dollar.
