Thanks for stopping by and sharing! 😊
Absolutely beautiful! My goodness so green... where I live is brown and dry buildings on a dessert, the only beautiful plant does well are my aloe vera .

It really is! It’s such a beautiful property!
Yeah its like the real life garden or eden
If I didn't have birds singing every morning I don't think I would get out of bed!
@@PlantSmartLivingNOW whats the name/model of that wooden cattle trellis you mentioned at tractor supply if you know? Only saw galvanized at my local store. Thanks.
Thank you for clarifying. Yes, compost is very important. Looking forward to seeing more of your garden updates.
You have such a beautiful beautiful garden. It shows how much you enjoy gardening. What a treat. I’ve just subscribed!
Thank you for your kind and encouraging words and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
Thanks for the information. I was thinking three feet! Wishing you a bountiful harvest as well!
You have a beautiful garden and land! We sold our property last year in Florida, now only having about on quarter acre in a subdivision. Am growing Beefsteak Tomatoes 🍅 and Papayas, just germinated some cherry tomatoes. Can’t wait, Thanks for the great info!
You’re welcome Albert and thank you for stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
Thanks! Exactly what I wanted to know as this year I have a trellis just like yours! 🧡
You’re welcome Kate and thank you for stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
This is my first year with tomatoes, and I have a sun golden cherry tomato plant GOING CRAZY! I was feeling guilty about not knowing about pruning, so I am really happy to have come across your video, especially as another Pennsylvanian! Happy growing!
Thanks for stopping by and sharing, I’m glad the video was helpful, and I hope you have a bountiful garden season! 🙂
It's a good thing I saw this before I started messing with my garden! I planted 4 kinds of tomatoes this year for the first time, and was utterly confused. Much clearer now, thank you!
You’re welcome Jessica, I’m glad the video was helpful for you and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
@@PlantSmartLivingNOW You can freeze cherry tomatos?
I freeze my cherry tomatoes and use them in my soups, chili or with my rice and beans, they’re too mushy to use like in salads or sandwiches.
@@PlantSmartLivingNOW Ok thats what i was wondering if they get mushy because I was going to try freezing them and just eat some during winter thank you
I wish I would've found this channel sooner. But, I'm glad I found you now, thank you!
My tomatoes hated getting pruned. Fourth of July tomatoes didn't like it, either. I left one, as is, and it did the best out of almost 20 tomato plants. Live and learn. Every year will get better. :)
My first year doing a garden an I on the fence about pruning
This year the weather has been so crazy an last frost date kept getting pushed back I think I'm gonna let em go as is an next year prune an see what works best
Happy gardening!
Just found your channel and liked, subscribed and love it!!! Amazing garden and great wisdom regarding growing fresh and eating right😀 Thank you for sharing your knowledge🍅🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🍅
You’re welcome and thanks for stopping by and commenting and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
I’m learning that it really depends on how much space you have and how much you’re able to support the plants.
Beautiful garden and video!
Thanks for stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
Great,i JUST PRUNED MY CHERRIE MATERS,,,,dang it
I'm at war with ours lol I don't have a choice, I've got to prune, they're over 6' now and I don't have the space. I've also spent so much on dirt (soil) and supports, I can't invest anymore hah
Me too!
me too
I just pruned mine too.
Same
Growing mine in a container on the deck. May have crowded the container but the corner of the deck and slats are doing a good job keeping them up but I was JUST going to prune those puppies! Beautiful garden, love the loud serene birdsong!
Thank you for your kind words and stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
I just discovered you! I enjoy your demeanor, your garden and especially your knowledge. I've NEVER grown ANYTHING and just planted a sungold, a chocolate cherry, a pineapple heirloom and a bush Goliath so I have a lot to learn in a short time! And now I'm off to find your video on building a cattle panel trellis! Thank you so much for sharing your gardening wisdom with us!
You’re welcome and thank you for your kind words and I hope you have a bountiful garden season this year!
Very informative video, thanks for sharing! You're obviously doing something right. Your plants look great, the whole yard looks amazing! 👍💯
Thank you for stopping by and sharing your kind words and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
My pleasure, you have a real positive vibe. I subscribed to your channel last night. I look forward to learning more. My best wishes for you too, God bless you sir! 🙏💯
G’day from Western Australia. Glad I found this video. I’ve just purchased a couple of cherry tomato plants ( Black Cherry & Cherry Roma ) and will be planting them in my small suburban back garden into big 32 litre pots and every other video I’ve watched has had people pinching out the side shoots which I instinctively thought was unnecessary. Thanks Farmer Fred! 🙏🏽End of winter here and I’m keen to get back into my garden.
Still winter here in Canberra, frosts still around so have to wait until I can put my tomatoes out
You’re welcome Susan and thank you for stopping by and sharing your comment and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
Thank you Pentti for stopping by and sharing!
@@PlantSmartLivingNOW No worries about that, I listened to many others in regards to pruning, but watching yours has made me think twice about that. I think I will lean more towards what you shared about that. I could even experiment with light pruning on a few and heavier pruning on a few others and no pruning on a few others also, compare the results.
Jesus is Lord - God bless
What a beautiful garden. The landscaping is truly a paradise.
Thank you!
I found the same thing. I grow a lot of tomatoes every summer. I have about 12 plants usually and I harvest 40 to 60 a day. I think the fruit likes to be behind the leaves to keep the sun off. I do like to keep them off the ground too if possible to stop the insects.
One word, Beautiful!
Hi I'm in love with your garden, and learnt so much from you,can't thank you enough❤
you’re welcome and I am so glad that you are learning from the videos… I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
That salad looks amazing! Yummy!
Thanks Greg! 😊
Thanks for this very informative video. It’s my first time growing cherry tomatoes. Please post more videos!
You’re welcome and thank you for stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
I enjoyed your clear instructions! Thank you!
You’re welcome and thanks for stopping by and commenting and I hope you have a beautiful garden season!
Glad I learned this early into my first growing season! Everyone tells me something different. Prune. Don’t. Prune a little, just enough for airflow. Prune a lot. Enough to drive me nuts.
I’m glad the video was helpful, thanks for stopping by and sharing! 😊
From what I've been able to gather. Pruning/staking the plant just makes it easier to harvest the tomatoes. But at the cost of having fewer tomatoes to harvest. Due to making them more accessible by pruning. Some people prune all the way to the top as it grows. Others prune the bottom and then leave one sucker bellow the first bloom to form a V. And leave the rest to grow on it's own with support. In a greenhouse this helps to utilize available space. But you can grow a bunch on the open ground naturally. Braving the ills of growing directly on the soil. And putting more time in at harvest. But getting more fruits overall. A lot depends on the weather in your area. Mildew loves moisture so pruning will open up the mass to airflow. Reducing the chances of getting PM. And making it easier to spray should it be needed.
Thank you for stopping by and sharing your garden information!
Thank you. Wished I would have known this earlier.😫
Thankyou for your video Farmer Fred. Lots of great information 👍
You’re welcome and thank you for stopping by and sharing! 😊
I'm going to try those sungold variety . Candyland red are about half the size of cherry tomatoes and go great in pasta salad and when you bite into them they pop. Indigo rose is pretty cool looking cherry type that's dark purple almost black . Those are my 2 favorite cherry variety . Thanks Fred, outstanding garden you have there.
The sun golds are GREAT!!! The taste like plums
It can be a good idea to prune cherry tomatoes towards the end of the season to get your last tomatoes to ripen. When you prune the suckers, remember that you can use them as cuttings. I take a couple in in the fall and grow them indoors. This spring I have so far cut 24 cuttings off a Sungold that was a cutting from the garden last year. They're from a foot to two feet and more than half of them already have roots I can see in the 18oz clear plastic cups (with drain holes cut in) that I planted them in. I planted 10 of them 5 days ago and the rest 3 days ago. One cutting showed roots in just two days. Just plant in potting mix and water. Pre-soaking only increases mortality and hormones aren't necessary with tomatoes.
Thank you for stopping by and sharing some of your helpful garden information!
Never got sucker to survive
@@i1bike Use a potting mix that contains only peat moss, limestone and perlite. I get nearly 100% survival. When I said not to pre-soak, I was referring to soaking the cutting in rooting solution. You may have to pre-soak the potting mix if it's really dry. Just add a little water to the mix in a bag or a closed container and let it sit 12 hours before using. It wets better if it's slightly damp than if it's totally desiccated.
@@dizzyspinner648
I do not have perlite or moss, but i put limestone pebbles/gravel in flower supstrate and soak it with water and whole pot sits in water plate, never had sucker that survived. Tho, i never holded it in a really dark place, i put it on morning sun and rest of the day in the shade. But hey, its probably my temperature, i live in european africa, also known as south dalmatia. My suckers start when its already 30°+ outside. And tomato probably needs 20-25°
Just discovered your community this morning and have benefitted so much! CUTTINGS! for this year, and next 🙃forgot. I already have bottle or rooting hormones so I’ll dab, is that powder good for microbial 24 hour air stone bubbled teas? Do your foliar spray your cherries ever ( add aspirin ) or sprinkle epsome salts? Thanks, you seem like the brain I need to pick this morning 🧠🗣️🦻🏻🤔😃🙏🏻
I wish i have found this channel a long time i dont bother to prune any tomatoes plants i give them a lot of sun still again i am glad i found you keep being the good gardener👏👏👏
Hi Patricia, thanks for stopping by and sharing your kind words and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!

Beautiful garden! So tranquil, and abundant!
Thank you and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
Thanks. Great tip. My grandkids LOVE the sun gold cherry tomatoes.
You’re welcome and I hope you have a wonderful day!
Talk about the garden of Edin!!!!! What a beautiful place, the concocaphy of birds, the water, the flowers & oh just the all round asthetically pleasing surrounds, we won't even mention the bountiful supply of vegetables!!!
Thankyou so much for sharing. I certainly didn't know not to prune cherry tomatoes.
Blessings from South Africa 🇿🇦
Thank you Rina for your kind words and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
I have never seen a more beautiful WELL-KEPT garden. Do you do all that yourself? Awesome!
Thank you, I maintain the garden all by myself, although Bailey sometimes does help me till the soil.
Am grateful Farmer Fred for you effort in sharing your food growing experiences/wisdom with the public. Farmers are the most valuable artisans in a culture; a godly pursuit. Love your video. And I wholly agree sungold cherry tomatoes are the most tasty of them all, as I prefer sweet tomato taste over acidic taste. I also use the early girl medium sized tomato as my standard choice as they are yummy and early. These two types are my choice. I live in the desert of Albuquerque and grow in a tiny yard in containers with cattle fence cage supports.
Hi Diana… Thank you for stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
What a beautiful garden- so peaceful and well-thought out. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Have some sun-golds and yellow pears, red pearls and some others. First-time grower so this info is soooo helpful. Can't wait to dive into your other videos. Subscribed!!
Hi T D, thanks for stopping by and sharing your kind and encouraging words and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
By far, Sun Gold is superior in taste among all other cherry tomatoes I have grown. Thank you for another informative video. You garden is absolutely beautiful!
Thank you for your kind and encouraging words and yes... Sun-gold Cherry tomatoes are amazing!
Have you tried Sun Sugar? You might have a new favorite...
I picked up some sungold seeds in February and on the packet it told me to remove the suckers. Last week I did a big prune of all the suckers. Now I am kicking myself! I wish I saw this video earlier!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. God bless you and your family and your beautiful garden.

Hi Fred, hope you're doing well! Just circling back around on this with results from my tests on your claim it's better not to prune suckers off your cherry tomato plants. In short, I ended up agreeing with you.
But it seems to depend on the variety, and I have one exception: the Sweet 100. This is my favorite, and was all I grew until 2021. I've always pruned my Sweet 100's, and I can prove you get a better yield if you do. This is why I was somewhat skeptical about this.
But in 2021, my beloved Sweet 100's started getting harder to find, so I started growing other varieties of cherry tomatoes to find a good backup for my favorite. Mainly Super Sweet 100's, Sun Gold, and Chocolate Cherry.
I discovered that the other cherry tomato varieties do *not* like having their suckers pruned. They REFUSE to produce if I don't let their suckers grow wild. Eventually, I just left them alone to grow as they wish, and that's when they really began producing.
But I still get the best results from my Sweet 100s if I prune them.
Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing your results from the garden! 😊
Good morning from Auckland, New Zealand it’s Sunday, November 17, 2019.
Really like this idea. Glad I saw this before pruning.

Thank you Cecilia and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
I am so happy to find a whole food plant based gardner! We have been plant based for 14 years. I only have a small garden for the two of us, but as a beginner learning different tips has really helped me out. We live in a 55+ community that doesn't allow us to plant veggies, but I have a large screened in patio that gets full sun all day and I have turned it into my garden using vertical towers and raised beds.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing Nancy, yeah my wife and I love the plant based diet, the benefits are amazing, I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
Enjoyed your video. I am growing cherry and grape tomatoes in NH this summer. Wish me luck.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing and I hope you have a bountiful garden season this year!
If you let your tomato fall over it gets a bigger root structure and can be much more tolerant to temperature and drought. The stem all the way up can grow roots easily. The big risk of this method is blight and pests, but you can prune the leaves that touch the ground.
If you have the space I would highly recommend it. Mine have taken over an entire bed with just a few plants.
You can also prune the sun leaves to get much more tomatoes to grow. Although they are pretty staggered at harvest.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your garden information and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
The effort and passion you put in your paradise is rewarding. Working with Mother Nature's gifts that keep on giving is living a life. If only more and more will appreciate and grateful to her gifts, more and more will have a fulfilled life rather than working against the nature' way. It brings joy to my heart to see a dog with such environment and love. Wishing the same for every pet.
Thank you for sharing your paradise and inspiring The Gardeners worldwide.

I am in Tn and i am eating sungold tomatoes as i watch this video. They are hard to beat.
😋😋😋😋😁💯
Great information, just what I needed, I just subscribed, thank you.
You’re welcome and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
I am so grateful for this video-just in time!! I am doing a comparison this year between sunsugar and sungolds to see which one I like best 😃 I have determinants and lots of in determinants and have wondered about pruning! I’ve been removing all the suckers to encourage upward growth but now I’ll leave them on my cherry tomatoes, due to this advice-THANKYOU! I look forward to all your wonderful videos!!! 😻🌶🌽🥕🍅🥦🥒
So glad that this video came at the perfect time for you, Taai02! Wishing you the best with that comparison you do; once you determine which one you like the best, I'd be interested in hearing the results. Hope you have a wonderful 4th of July, and thank you for another kind and warm comment about my videos! Before my family arrives later this morning, I am hoping to get out into the garden and record another video or two. Hopefully I can upload that video either this evening or tomorrow. Take care!
Oh! Thank you for this comment. I have a sungold in a container and I've been pruning the shooters off. Now my plant is kind of leggy and now I understand why. I will also stop pruning them off and see what happens. Are suckers and shooters the same thing? I guess I'll find out.
I grow them in a glasshouse in the UK and the season is short so only 3 trusses ( maybe 4 if very lucky ) will actually ripen in time. So we prune them and space them quite tightly together ( 14 plants in a 12 x 8 ft glasshouse ) So that we get a good 42 or so trusses to ripen total. That is ALOT of tomatoes in a 12 x 8 ft space and is the best way to get maximum yield in colder climates.
Thank you for stopping by and sharing your information and I hope you have a bountiful garden season this year!
I train my indeterminate tomatoes up a piece of Paracord with top tied to a high pine tree branch. I'm in a condominium so I do what I can. About 20 years ago I took over a large area behind the building and planted may perrenial plants along the street side that disguise my veg garden from people going by.🍅😊🥒🌱

Thank you!
I do a similar thing with cherry tomatoes. One neighbor kept telling me I was doing it wrong and would walk right up ready to start snapping off branches. Another, with a couple of botany degrees kept telling me I was doing it wrong. But when literally everyone in the apartment building and the kids in the building next door were coming out day after day and stuffing themselves, they decided that the "Garden Guy" (my name here in the building) knew what he was doing:)) One day the botany guy (his wife was getting a bowl of tomatoes every day for her eggs) commented that he had no idea one bush could provide soooo much food and that if he ever bought a house, he was going to plant one of these. And I live in Seattle which has lousy tomato weather compared to the midwest where I grew up. July can be gloomy and wet the entire month in a normal year and 80 degree weather makes the locals look for A/C :))

Hi Barbie, I’m glad the video was helpful for you and I hope you have a bountiful garden season!
I'm a new sub and I liked your video. This was a very nice video with all those birds singing. I think this is good advice not to prune smaller cherry tomato plants. It seams like you almost always get tons of tomatoes off the plants. I guess if the plant is not doing as well due to weather or disease that is a different issue. But over all great advice. I really LOVE the end of your video showing everything growing there. It really was very neat to see everything. Everything looks like it was doing good too. :) Thanks for sharing :)

@@PlantSmartLivingNOW Can you grow two cherry tomatoe plants in one large pot or should they be separated?
I would plant one per large pot.
I like the grow and twist method it has worked really well for my mystery tomato plant that sprung up last summer just before fall, so I brought it indoors and put it in a 35 gallon tote and its huge it ended up having 3 leaders and I had them all twisted and I rooted off a bunch of clones from the suckers that gave me a big jump on this year's current season plus I had tomatoes growing over winter indoors it was really nice

Hello and thank you for this fabulous video. I love Sungold tomatoes, I used to live on Long Island and got them at the farmstands. Now I live in FL and cannot find them, so in May I was on vaca in LI and I brought a Sungold plant home. It's growing fast and I have some green tomatoes on the bottom. I've been pinching off the shooters but it looks a little leggy so I came here looking for some info. I will stop pinching them off now and see what happens. I'm not sure if suckers an shooters are the same thing, I'll go do some more reseatch now. Thanks again!
Your welcome Jacquie Em, I’m pretty sure that shooters and suckers seem to be the same thing, I hope you have a bountiful garden season and thanks for stopping by and sharing!

Lovely garden, and personalty! Great vid too...one thing if love to see is when you say 'come with me' and you walk into your garden that you use a hand held or mobile phone camera to capture your perspective walking and cut between your perspective and a wide angle perspective. Anyway just a suggestion stylistic would be amazing just so we can really feel we are there with u

I'm in Bethlehem, Pa. you are about an hour south of me. I'm planting my first garden this year. I have a small patch of land around my garage as I'm learning how to grow some tomatoes, bell peppers, and eggplant. I wish I could do more and hopefully next year I will I have to show my husband that I can and god willing next year he will join me. So far he keeps telling me that I'm killing the plants He is a cup half empty type of person. I love your garden it looks organized wish is important as my OCD goes crazy when thing looks disorganized. Also, I love your flowers. I to decide to grow some flower in front of my house. Wish me luck that that do well.

My first go around with growing cherry tomatoes I had a "Husky Cherry Tomato" plant down here in South carolina and I had at least twenty tomatoes at a time growing and replacing the ones I harvested. The plant went from 6 inches to over 4ft and was thriving until the cold snap hit and killed it. I had to replace it last month but looking forward to it producing tomatoes every week once it starts to bear.
