Hello in 2024. I am growing Tachi this season for the first time in Houston Tx. I planted them out Feb 25. This is May 7 and they were just starting to take on a hint of a blush when I was out in my garden today. They are super productive! Tall for determinates - mine are around 5 feet at their highest currently. I am looking forward to doing something with these!
I have made a note of the other determinate varieties suggested and will be purchasing several varieties for this fall and/or next spring.
Sounds great!
You do a great service. What's better than teaching people to plant food? We kind of laugh about it around here my Mother's 75 and I keep saying "Well Travis and Greg say..." like we know you. I really do appreciate what you do.
Here in southeast Tennessee, I kept my tomatoes pruned and free of fungus last year and actually had a second crop in December!
Great video Travis.I get up every morning looking for yalls videos and Deep south Homesteads as well.Between the 2 channels i can get all the great info i need.Thanks
Planting about 600 tomatoes in two different gardens about 50 miles apart this year. I planted the Bella Rosa and 3-4 others from you last year. The plot I planted in was brand new ground so the soil wasn't as developed as I would like. Everything did ok, not great, but I attributed most of that to the soil being what it was. We have really heavy clay soil so it takes a lot to get it amended as it should be. This year I'm planting Bella Rosa, Red Snapper, Summer Pick, Tachi, Better Boy and Black Krim from you and about 5-6 varieties of determinates from Harris. So I should have a fairly good chance to compare varieties, I'll let you know how everything does. I'm going to weigh all of my harvests individually so I'll know for sure what did best.
Sounds great! Definitely let us know your results.
Have a good day!!!!
Grew red snapper last year it did very well. Growing them again this year along with southern ripe
I grew the Bella Rosa last year and will again this year! It's a an awesome variety. I'm excited to try the Red Snapper this year too. Can't wait for tomato season to begin here in central NC.
Love the videos you have been a great help thank you so much ! I live in the state of Florida panhandle.
I’m so glad I stumbled on your channel!! I’m learning new things every time I watch! Thanks for all your doing!!
Glad you found us!
Great video, Travis...as always. I love supporting you guys.
I live in SE Virginia (Zone 7b) - first year growing Bella Rosa, Red Snapper, and Tachi. Also, growing Chef Choice Red, Big Beef, and Early Girl. Dr. Wyche Yellow, Aunt Ruby Green, Cherokee Purple, and Brandywine are my heirlooms for ‘Mater Sammiches. Growing several cherry tomatoes too - Sun Gold, Super Sweet 100, Black Cherry, Fantastico, Blondkopfchen. And lastly, one I highly recommend for superb flavor, is the AAS winner Red Torch. It’s the bomb and one you all should definitely start carrying in your seed store.
My first year using drip tape irrigation - definitely looking forward to this.
As for pruning indeterminates, I am on the fence. I usually prune mine but have always wondered if pruning works against me when the heat settles in. That foliage provides some nice shade and protects the blossoms. And yet diseases can be a real PITA. In the past I used neem oil and sodium bicarbonate sprays. This year I’m rotating different products from Monterrey. #HBTFD
I know you guys don’t see those cages any more but do you know who makes them?
An Amish company called Cedar Ridge Manufacturing. I think they're in Pennsylvania.
I am growing the bella rosa for the 1st time this year along with my usual heirlooms to see how they compare.
Travis, have you ever planted the Homestead variety? Do you like it?
We grew it last year. It did pretty well.
I have the summer pick and the better boys from you guys this year. Now to see if there’s a difference
I used wheat straw in my garden this year! Never again! I had so much wheat that grew up that I was constantly pulling wheat plants.
Will you and your Dad do another blind taste testing this year? Last year's video was good. I just started my tomato seeds last week including Summer Pick. Mine won't go into the ground until mid May.
I picked all my varieties for this year based on that video. Potted up the Black Krim and Mortgage Lifters to 4” pots today.
@@jonathanlong8682 I know what you mean. I choose Summer Pick because of that video. I grew Black Krim in 2019 and it did have good flavor but didn't get much out of it. The tomatoes kept getting attacked by flea beetles before they ripen. Hope yours does better.
We will certainly do another taste test this year. It has become somewhat of a tradition.
My wife wanted me to tell you she wants to see a new canning video with you and Brooklyn.
We'll definitely try to do some when canning season gets here.
After cover cropping with yellow nutsedge,chickweed and dandelions I will be planting Redsnapper and Taichi again!!
😂
We grow Amish Paste every year. Best sauce tomato we've ever found.
Great work!
I'll be planting my first garden, so please forgive my newbie question. If I have, say, four rows of tomatoes, should the rows run North-South, or East-West? I'm in Northwest Lower Michigan. Thanks!
If the plants will be in direct sun regardless of the row direction, it shouldn't matter. I have some plots that run E to W and others that run N to S and I can't tell a difference in performance. If one direction presents more direct sunlight, go with that direction.
Hey Travis! There’s finally some transplants at the green centers. Do you think it would be ok if I bought them rn and let them sit for a month? They wouldn’t die right?
You'd probably have to repot them into larger pots, but besides that they should be fine.
Travis. Does your use of "wheat straw" lead to weed wheat seed getting into your garden. Every time I use it I have to battle the wheat to save the garden.
I will get a few sprouts within the wheat straw, but it's usually pretty easy to pull outta there before it goes to seed.
I’m in Alabama and I planted some seeds in my seed tray with a dome cover and a heating mat. Do I leave the dome on until they sprout. This is the first time I used seeds. Should I use the seed starting mix for the seeds and how many seeds per hole. Thank you in advance.
Leave the dome until they sprout. Make sure the soil is nice and moist under the dome.
Watching late, will the drip tape work with gravity feed 375 gallon IBC totes?
If you can generate around 12-15 psi of pressure with those totes.
Can you plant different varieties by each other? I have heirloom and hybrid
Yes you can!
Trav that 15 mil tape.... you think it would be better for rockyish soil? Been having trouble with pinhole leaks in my normal driptape... I literally lay it in the trench and turn it on..... no leaks.... when I cover it up with the high arch I turn around and see water spraying up in the air... damn little stones... I don't have that trouble in my other plot
Sounds like wireworms or some other type of soil organism creating those holes. 15 mil might help.
@@gardeningwithhoss what you talking about Willis
Can you put shade cloth on tomatoes in the south, FL9B, to keep them growing into the heat of summer?
You probably could.
summer of 2021 i bought tomatos at are farmer market alot to canned and they were horable , very little juice and big clump of stuff in the middow of the tomato , tasted not like a good tomato , my friends gave me good ones i guess i will mix them with the tasteless one and canned. do not no the name of them , i will watch out when i buy again , i was down in my back i would have planted my own . i watch cog hill and others they like your seeds so can you tell me your best canning tomato seeds. thank you i love watching you two guy on you tube
Bella Rosa and Red Snapper.
Have you ever tried the chocolate cherry tomatoes
Have not tried growing them, but have tasted them. They are quite good!
I just can't seem to get root development like that on seedlings! Any tips are welcome.
We start fertilizing ours 1-2x a week once they have true leaves. Mix 1 tablespoon of 20-20-20 per gallon of water.
I forgot to order some slicing tomatoes 🍅. What do you recommend? I have the cherry 🍒 tomatoes. I live in Bloomfield KY
Hard to go wrong with an indeterminate variety like Better Boy (hosstools.com/product/better-boy-tomato/) since you're in Kentucky and can likely grow them all throughout the summer.
U may answer this b4 the vid is over but I wonna ask b4 I forget but what makes a paste tomato? I can a lot but I’ve never grown a paste tomato. Can u explain what the advantages r?
They have less seeds and more "meat" for making sauces.
YUM
What do you spray potatoes for potato bugs
I use our Take Down Garden Spray (hosstools.com/product/take-down-garden-spray/). Gotta start spraying early and at least once a week.
What variety of tomato has the least amount of seeds? (Spaghetti sauce and chili?)
Any of the paste types -- Tachi or Invincible are both good ones.
Have you ever tried the Mortgage Lifter?
Grew it a couple years ago. It's a very popular variety and we carry seeds for it on our site, but I wasn't super-impressed.
@@gardeningwithhoss I grow them last year was not happy with them at all
Will those tomato transplant survive 40° temperatures
They should. Not worried about them.
@@gardeningwithhoss you can always replant
I bought an irrigation system from you and you sent me a 1 Gallon fertilizer injector. I feel i got ripped off. Show videos of you using the 1 gallon so people will know what they are really getting with their drip tape system...... Thanks
I'm not sure I understand. That's the 1 gallon injector you see in this video. If you did not receive what you ordered, please send give us a call (1-888-672-5536 between 8:00am-5:00pm EST) or send an email to custserv@hosstools.com and we'll be glad to help.
@@gardeningwithhoss the video shows a 2 gallon injector yet i only received a 1 gallon. Are there 2 different injectors. What's hard to understand? It would obviously be beneficial to have the 2 gallon vs. The 1 gallon.
The previous model we carried had 3/4 gallon and 2 gallon options. That model had a tank made of a hard plastic that was prone to splitting when left under constant pressure. We upgraded to a much better tank made of PVC that can be left under constant pressure and won't split. We also added a brass hose bib connector as opposed to the plastic one with the previous model. That's why you no longer see the size options on our product page -- we just have the one model that is 1 gallon now. That is plenty sufficient for most folks. I use it on my 1/4 acre garden no problem.
@@gardeningwithhoss okay. Thank you for your reply. That's what i was talking about. A Bunch of videos i watched showed the 2 gallon but when i received mine it was the 1 gallon. I didn't see an option for that or i probably would have got the bigger one. I appreciate the info on why you changed tanks. Drip is great so far, I only have two rows started but it's already awesome to just set my timer and forget it. Great videos. This is my first spring using drip tape so i'm really looking forward to less time watering. Thanks again for the info.
Sorry for the confusion. Glad you're enjoying the drip system.
Grew Roadster last year. Disaster. That new disease hit it and it was gone in less than a week. The others faired better
Oh no!
Are you going to try it again this year?
@@gardeningwithhoss No, I learned my lesson. I am trying the red snapper and red bounty. Along with Heatmaster, Ruby Monster (from dreaded Gurney's) and Heatwave, and some OP San Marzano (which are taking off like rockets, and still my favorite for canning, thick luscious tomatoes) and an odd ball one or two single plants I have set out. I guess I'd better set out some better boy just for the tradition of it. I'm up to about 200 plants now. How many is too much?
Hello halls we bought cumber Recipe you can send me Because I bought CU cumber seat from you guys thank you
