Matt is now the Plant manager.
😊
😂😂
The Overseer 😂❤❤❤
Lol...❤❤❤❤
The Silent Authority
Miss Cindy is smiling in heaven knowing how much you think about her.
Nothing better than a warm tomato right out of the garden! YUM
Nothing like home grown tomatoes.
I just loved watching you two together. 😊
My mouth is watering with all this tomato sorting, planting and talk of tomato sandwiches!! I still smile big for you Tipper that Matt is able to be there with you full time through all this. 😄❤❤🙏
Guy Clark said it best - Only two things that money can't buy, that's true love and homegrown tomatoes.
😅😅😅 Matt: I have figured out the confusion.
Tipper: Me? 😅😅😅
The laughter afterward was great.
You guys are too cute. ❤
Thank you for the laugh and tomato plant inspiration!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Tipper, I just love to hear you laugh when you are teasing Matt. I think we all have that little laugh that shows we are enjoying teasing or picking on those we love. These little jobs are so much more fun when you can laugh and enjoy each others company.
Amen 🙏
How sweet! Thank you 😊
It's almost mater sandwich time. The planting has begun. 🍅
I can almost taste them now. Home grown maters, Duke's mayo, and light bread! 😋
Hugs 🤗 and God bless you all! ❤🙏❤️
You said it best! Tomato sandwiches with Dukes says summer!
Mater samiches are the best but I use Kraft mayo🍅🍞
Yep love mater sandwich with Dukes!
You all are so Blessed living up there in your hollow, peaceful, unlike where I live here in town, a neighbor which has HOA of which they try they try to tell us what and how to do with your own property I was a country girl never knew about HOA it socks. I love being able to enjoy sharing life with you guys. Makes me relax enjoying the simple great life.
Matt u are doing a Super Job keeping Tipper in LINE 😅
LOVE YOU GUYS I make sure I check in on regular basis now thinking might here News that Little Bit has arrived. Wishing for Katie a smooth delivery, be so glad when this part is over for her.
Praying for all.❤
There’s nothing quite like a juicy mater sandwich with Duke’s mayo, salt and pepper
Planting seeds always puts a smile on everyone's face. Confusion just keeps things interesting 🙂.
I agree with Matt. I eat tomato sandwiches for lunch in the summer time. Nothing better!
Loved the video. I remember going to the garden, getting a tomato warmed from the sun, cleaning the dirt off by wiping the tomato against my pant leg , sitting down on the porch with a box of Morton salt and eating the juiciest tomato ever!
Is Katie still hanging in think of her daily and keep you all in our prayers. Matt most of Cherokee purple to make for last year's loss😊
Save me some of that cornbread and buttermilk, do I hear a new baby crying?,i love you and your family Tipper God bless you Matt will keep you straight,
😊 I’ll save you some! Thank you Norman 😊
He was so disappointed last year when he just kept getting Tommy Toes 😂lol
We have problems with cut worms here in Texas. I start in the red Solo cups, but when ready for the garden I cut the bottom 1/4 off and use the Solo cup as a barrier with the cup lip about 2 inches above grade. Keeps the cut worms away from the plant until they are big enough to survive on their own.
Excellent deterrent! My mother did the same, only she used those waxy milk cartons we'd get from the store.
Great idea! Thanks @zoesdad961
Great idea ,
Thank you
We already have many tomatoes, peppers , cucumbers in the ground & raised bed and on our deck in grow bags * planters ,
I abhor those worms
Last year , I caught one and my granddaughters were shocked I found it , picked it off & had to take care of it.
I explained to them , they can eat our whole garden in 1 day ....
Weather here in Montgomery County, Texas has been beautiful,
I'm still succession planting ,
I still have some plants under grown lights, and will be harding them off tomorrow and then this weekend
Plant about 12 more tomatoes & sweet peppers & jalapeños plants....
Just incase ..
Happy growing & I hope we don't end up having 120 temps like last summer ,
My husband put up shade clothe but until September last year , we didnt get anything
....
I pray we all have a good harvest this year.
Mrs josette
Montgomery County, Texas 🙏
Great tip 😊
To save writing on the cups I got a box of 1000 wood coffee stirrers and write on them with a sharpie. Then as I plant the seeds I put the marker in the cup.
They can be reused or put in the garden to show what the plant is. Very convenient. Plus I decide how many cups I want to plant of each kind, make ahead of time and don't over plant.
I love the smell of a tomato plant.
Tomato plants….the smell of Summer!
I'm like Matt I love tomatoes sandwiches I love watching yall ❤
Tipper and Matt, I hope God touches your garden and blesses you with an awesome and tasty bunch of tomatoes this year.
It’s a gettin’ down to the nitty gritty on grand baby time!!!
Wouldn’t an Easter birth be exciting✝️🥰
@@saner6888I have a set of twins greatgrandbabies were born on April 15,tax day,2yr ago!! And seems like it was close to Easter that year. Easter would be fun!
🍅🍅"My decision is final ... And the answer is maybe ? ! Coffee cup in my kitchen, sounds like Tipper's motto too!
I chuckled a few times watching this. When Aubree is over to have a sleepover,alot of times I make her for breakfast is a toast and tomato sandwich with mayo.😊 Lisa from Oklahoma ❤❤😊
Thank you for sharing today Tipper and Matt stay safe .
Tomato sandwich is my favorite, sometimes to be fancy, I add cheese. So good.
Tomato sandwiches are truly a wonderful simple pleasure. Nothing better than a tomato sandwich with a glass of sweet tea. Hope you have a blessed Easter!
love wayching you two working together. Matt is happy retired and ever since Tipper your eyes are smiling.🤩
Such teamwork! Love watching you two ❤🍅
Wow, it looks so nice in there. The tables look great!😮
Tipper, I did Hillbilly tomatoes last season and oh my gosh! Massive, beautiful, sunset-colored tomatoes with the biggest leaves I've ever seen. Got a 2+lb tomato off one of them and they're a perfect slicer for tomato sandwiches! You'll love 'em!
Sounds great! Thank you!
We bought Cherokee Purple seeds this year for the first time. I am really excited to grow them, but even more excited to make a sammy with them. ❤❤❤
Ooooh a tomato slice in a biscuit makes a fine breakfast! Blessings to the family ❤
I can't wait to get my garden all planted!
It is so Refreshing seeing Matt and U work Together more. I think that is Something Special and I think he Likes it Tipper. I Love when God puts things Together for the Good. U Giys Rock, I Love it!
Thank you 😊
Matt's probably looking forward to using those new knives he bought to slice all those tomatoes for sandwiches. Yes sir!
You & Cory grew all kind last year. Cherokee purple & the little pear shaped tomatoes are my all time favorite.
What a chore that is to get all those seeds organized, planted and properly labeled! I know I'd have to have help to get it right! Warm days are just around the corner and they can't get here quick enough for me. 😏
Matt is just making sure Tipper is Tipsy😂❤.. Love y'all! Just thinking about his comments last year... prayers for everyone 🙏
I still chuckle at the thought of Tipper and Corrie getting in the recipe.😂
The hardest part of tomato planting is deciding varieties and how many of each variety.
I agree with Matt. There's nothing like a tomato sandwich.
Makes make crave a good tomato sandwich from homegrown Tomatoes yum yum
I grew some black by mistake last year & they taste like the Cherokee purple. Very good.
This is going to be wonderful! I can't wait for the recipes!
Homegrown tomatoes sandwiches 🥪 is good anytime are biscuits and tomatoes big boy tomatoes seeds is good have a blessed Tuesday 🙌 everyone
I always heard after mother's day then put 🍅 out.
Awww so nice to see you both planting tomatoes Matt will surely have his tomato sandwiches enjoy!
I love tomato and biscuits with butter, salt, and pepper for breakfast! I’ll add bacon and egg too when I have time. 😊
Love mine either with cottage cheese or a tomato/sugar sandwich! 😊
I love a tomato diced up in buttered grits. I also love a tomato biscuit! Yum!
@miephoex we grind flaxseed on top of the cottage cheese and tomatoes. Good medicine right there!
My mother loved her sliced tomato on buttered home made bread, she made hocake bread, she hardly ever made a biscuit. I like my mom love those buttered biscuits and sliced tomato.🙏❤️🙂
Ps,I do not make hocake bread
I can't wait for a tomato sandwich too.
A taste of summer to come!
Another outstanding visit with y'all. Home grown tomatoes are the best. Sink sandwiches can't be beat. Arkansas travelers and then I usually try different ones also. Thanks for sharing
You will have tomatoes before you know it. It's fun to watch you two work together.
Thank you 😊
Sungold, mini tomatoes😁
Oh Matt I love tomato slice on my eggs or biscuits with pepper gravy. It is a slice of heaven.
Thank You Both for sharing!! Watching y'all helps me forget the crazy going on in our world now a days. Watching you is like living in another time and place that I surely love so much more! Thanks again ❤
Can't wait 4 Matt's first tomato sandwich of the summer season!!!😂
I use red solo cups to start my seeds too! Cheaper alternative to nursery containers
Thanks guys
Thanks for sharing! We always grow Cherokee Purple also. It's always been our favorite tomato. However, 2023 we tried a new-to-us tomato and it won the spot for the best tomato sandwich. Even my 82 year old Pennsylvania Dutch in her right mind mother, middle child off a 400 acre dairy farm, said "tomato sandwich," with the first bite. We were very surprised as we have always known the Cherokee Purple to be the best tasting tomato hands down. We grew 152 tomato plants last year and dozens of different types. I put up enough sauce for 2 years feeding 12 (soon to be 13) people. We are growing for fresh eating, salsa and salads 2024 limited to Cherokee Purple, Thornburn's Terra-Cotta, Black Beauty, German Pink slicers and Sun Gold and Chocolate cherry tomatoes.
My son showed me a video of a guy who had terrible time with squash bugs like you did and he used a tomato cage for his squash plants. Strangest thing I’ve ever seen but it worked. Think we may try it this year.
Thank you!
My dad was raised up on a tenant farm. Ray Denton ia a master gardner. He usually plants around 120 to 140 tomato plants in our small garden. He shares them with our neighbora and folka at his church. He plants cherokee purples,mr stripes,golden boys and lots of tommie toe ones.
That is wonderful 😊
I think you will regret not planting more than two of the hillbilly tomatoes. They are very delicious!! They will probably be Matt’s second favorite tomato. Happy growing and have a blessed Easter.
Nice to see Matt's Cherokee purple going in. He should have plenty for those tomato sandwiches. Which is what I had for supper a couple nights ago. Yay garden season is here. It's going to be good yall.
I really enjoy you two. ❤
Have you ever tried mortage lifter tomato? They are so good. We are planting those again this year and no getman johnson. They are so red and yummy.
I don’t think we have 😊
@@CelebratingAppalachia you would love them.
I hope all your tomatoes grow in abundance this year..Cherokee Purple is my favorite, too.. I’m in Florida so I have tomatoes planted in 5 gallon buckets, when doing seeds though, only 1 Cherokee purple survived…it has 2 tomatoes on it and I can hardly wait till they get ripe…& hopefully that plant will continue to produce more❤
Enjoyed watching y’all banter with each other while getting the plants done…waiting for the day we hear there’s a little one there with y’all…prayers for both girls & Granny/whole family ❤
Happy gardening❤
We've had a fairly large garden since we first bought our lot in 1979. Grew a garden before we built our house. After we harvested the garden last year, we planted grass over it. But we cant live without our home grown tomatoes. Our son just tilled a spot on his lot across from our house so we can plant a dozen tomato plants. We like Better Boy tomatoes.
Can’t beat those Cherokee Purples. I’m with Matt on that!
I love me some tomatoes ! My favorite big tomato is black krim and my favorite cherry tomatoes are sun sugar and Juliet . Of course jet star is a staple for me too .
Tipper I mailed Corie two packs of Cherokee Purple seeds a few weeks ago and wondered if she received them as one pack was for Matt. I too love them. God bless you both and Happy Easter! ❤
Thank you! I will check with her 😊
@@CelebratingAppalachia I mailed it to PO Box 83 Brasstown NC 28902 🙏💐💖🕊🍅🥗
That first bacon lettuce tomato sandwich. Mmm. It is an event!
Hi Tipper and Matt,I'm so Glad that your going to have so many tomatoes for sandwiches cause I know how much you love them Matt. It was nice watching the two of you planting and deciding together the different ones both big and small ones. I've always said that"Teamwork Makes the Dreamwork!" 😊❤🙏🏻
Thank you 😊
I tried a German Johnson plant last year but ours, like you said you experienced, it did not produce but about a hand full of fruit. I thought it was because it just did not get enough sun in my yard. Something I learned last year and had never heard before is that when the suckers are pruned off they can be planted. I tried that with several (of the "Sweet 100's") just to see how they would do and they all produced some fruit. They ended up being extra plants which was neat.
We call Tommy Toes cherry tomatoes in NV. It sounds like you’re planting a nice selection. Somebody commented that Matt is now the Plant Manager and that made me laugh! If you put up a “how to build a greenhouse video” to instruct us on how to do that, I’m going to have my husband watch it because that looks totally sensible for what we would need.
That’s a lot of tomatoes, but it takes a lot to eat fresh, make salsa, can stewed or to make pasta sauce!
Love me some tomato sandwiches! Looking forward to all the goings on in the new garden! God bless your sweet & precious family! 😀❤️
Dice some fresh tomatoes, stir in a little mayonnaise, a little salt and pepper. Great with some cooked green beans.
I'm right there with Matt on the mater sandwiches. Nothing better than tomato juice and mayonnaise dripping off my hands onto my shirt.
Also, i seen this method for growing seedlings, you get about a 4 ft strip of burlap or bubble wrap, or cardboard strip being maybe 6 or 8" wide, take your potting soil and cover the strip then roll up like a jelly roll, then you plant your seeds on the top and set in a tray, no need to up pot! no need for cups or cells, im going to give it a try next year
Home grown tomatoes, home grown tomatoes What would life be like without homegrown tomatoes Only two things that money can't buy That's true love and home grown tomatoes.
I love tomatoe sandwiches 🥪 too🥳😋🥰. Fresh veggies are always the best❣️❣️❣️
Write it on your calendar to water in the green house! 😊
I love Tomato 🍅Gravy and Sandwiches 🥪 Tomato 🍅 Soup 🍜 Tomato 🍅 Salad 🥗 Tomato 🍅 Everything 😊
Work with the "Tommy Toes" at your neighbors house,. Do take any chance getting them mixed up with good tomatoes.
I think I would use a numerical system: Cherokee Purple are #1 --just put a 1 on all those cups. Slicing tomatoes are #2, etc. Next year, it's easy to sort the numbers or scribble out the old number and write a new number.
Can't wait for tomato sandwiches and BLTs. Now if you have a shortage of Cherokee purples it's the seed companies fault. Lol Yall have a blessed night.
😊
I'm checking every day on the family. I can't wait to see our baby ❤
Great video thanks for sharing 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Matt's Cherry is great for salads. One of my favorites.
Great job sorting, planting your tomatoes seeds, with helper Matt. Friendly hint for Matt, built a table to hold your container of potting soil waist height, you will not have to keep bending over. I wonder Tipper would a person find the Turkey Purple tomato seeds in Ontario, Canada? Cannot wait to see the baby grandsons toddling around after you two in the garden.
Thank you! You can find Cherokee Purple seeds online 😊
I Love Tomato Sandwiches!!! I can eat them for Breakfast Lunch and Supper!!! We will get our first tomatoes in about a week!!! I can't wait!!! God Bless Us All!!!
Cherokee purple are my favorite too!
Gardening has been passed down in my family for many generations and it’s very satisfying to me to grow mine. I usually try different tomatoes and peppers every year out of curiosity. You do a great job every year. Happy gardening my friend, God bless.
Thank you! Hope you all are well 😊
did y'all remember to start some seeds for Mrs. Granny and Corie too?
We did 😊
Watching you 2 decide on tomatoes to plant kept a smile on my face.
Great team work, lol
Can't wait to watch this continue 😊
Terri R.
That was fun to watch you working out who was making the decision.
I am excited for you two! My mouth watered as soon as you said tomato seed planting .
Have you ever tried Biltmore tomatoes.We can buy the plants in our area at S & k greenhouses in Shelby N.C..
I haven’t tried them 😊
@@CelebratingAppalachia They are wonderful tomatoes
The hillbilly potatoe leaf is my favorite, along with Cherokee purple
Yum, tomatoes my favorite summer goodie. Im in SE Iowa. I always put tomatoes in ground on mothers day.
