Girl.............. I am jealous of your garden, but more than that, your thigh strength! I am 66 now and I can only remember what it was like to squat like that and then be able get up again. Lol. I enjoy your videos very much.
😂😂😂😂 Thanks for watching!
Very strong
Lacy I just went out and gave the tomatoes a haircut after watching you. Thank you guys for all the good advice.
Very strong advice. I love it!!
I know you are talking about pruning tomatoes, but all I hear is an analogy for The Word and how to bear good fruit spiritually! 😂 keep preaching even when you aren't "preaching"!! Keep the path straight and narrow, cut off the suckers so they don't steal your ability to grow good fruit. They can pop up quickly, even on the lower branches that you think are harmless. 😊 also, though, the suckers that are cut off can still be saved if they are planted firmly, watered and cared for. But does not have to be right next to the original plant to thrive.
You know exactly what we are talking about!!❤
Hello "Fitness Farmer" You are marvelous. I am learning a lot from you. I love this couple. What a great team!
I prune my tomatoes the same way and mine are completely loaded with tomatoes and the plants are a beautiful dark green💚🌱💚
I love how tomatoes grow. Such a sight to see the whole process
You and your family are so helpful. You make this channel about the community, not just you. Thank you
Just like God prunes his beloved. Thank you so much for sharing.
I agree
TWELVEHUNNERT* mater plants! ya'll really are living the dream!🍅 One day soon... "Blessings of Bounty and May Your Gardens and your Life always Bring You Joy, Inspiration and Abundance!" - Hope( & Mark)!💖 They have a lovely property too!
Hi...... Mike Dickson and Lacie nice to see you, thank you for sharing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
Great tomato tips. It is so important for people to remember you must air the plant.Great job , good teaching. Thank you.
Buds on your tomatoes, excellent! Adam's high tunnel is a lot bigger than yours Mike. You are growing a good amount of produce in your high tunnel! You guys are growing plenty on your homestead. Thanks for showing Melissa's presentation at the HOA in Tennesse.
I love the smell of tomato plants, your tomatoes look fantastic, although we are going into winter here in Australia, you have inspired me to plant tomatoes in spring...
Way to go Lacie those tomatoes will produce in abundance I pray. Many blessings to your sweet family. 💕🙋♀️💕🐶💕🐶
Thank YOU both teaching about tomato's,
Notes have been taken
Lacy,your pruning advise was the best I have seen, I guess I just related to you, what you explained just made sense to me and I have seen and done pruning but it all ways seem to challenge me but you made it easy for me. Thank you.
Cryinggggg..lol thanks for the pruning process and the explanations! I'm one who hates pruning but once I get started I'm a pruning monster!🤣🤣 My daughter said I went to far last year, but my tomatoes never had any diseases or pest and they produced until November 1st (Zone 8)
Love your explanation! But here, in the middle of Oklahoma the sun is soooo HOT and it's dry ... and we (or I should say a bunch of us) are letting all those leaves grow, to shade the fruit, and keep it from getting sunburned.
Oh! Yay! I love watching Melissa's channel! She's a solid teacher. Such timely great advice. 👍
30:38 LOL, I saw that. I know, I know, it's late (we have farmers market tomorrow) The pruning video is great and informative, but I got totally distracted at the end... Thank you all for being awesome!
Wow! Everything is growing so fast!
Look at your garden. It looks awesome. Thank you I never pruned mine but I will❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm new to gardening...second year. I learned so much needed information. THANK you and GOD bless.
I feel the same way when pruning but I like to keep them off the ground. I’m in Indiana
I have one of the larger greenhouses from Harbor Freight . One problem that I had with it was the wind blowing panels off of it. I solved that problem by sealing the edges of the panel with a clear silicone . Now the wind does not blow the panels off. The greenhouse is not as large as I want but it works great for starting seeds for transplants. When it is raining I like sitting out in the greenhouse enjoying the rain with a cup of fresh coffee. I collect the rain for my drip irrigation. A battery powered timer turns the water on and off for me. I'm 78 years old so I use as many work savers as I can.
I love love y'all channel. Beautiful family.

Life pruning! I love it!
Tomatoes really are tough! I found a volunteer tomato plant yesterday, it was growing through the staple in my weed barrier. I pulled it and potted it. If it is so determined to grow it deserves a chance! ☺ Loved this video.
You are giving very good lessons on pruning and taking proper care of plants.
Thank you Lacey for all of your tips on choosing tomato containers with double stems. I bought two and made sure to search for the double plants. Also, your pruning tips gave me 8 more tomato plants. They actually took and I just cut them below the flowers, stick them in the ground, and they are thriving. I love learning all of the practical and useful tips that you shared on your channel...
Wonderful!
Thank you so much for showing really showing how to prune tomato plants
The hard pruning method is mainly for indeterminants. Determinants you can lightly prune so that there are no leaves touching the ground but watch out because they will usually fruit really low on the plant.
Thanks I’ve learnt a lot how to grow healthier tomatoe plants this year, happy growing and homesteading, shalom to your family xxx
Thanks again for what you do. Everything looks great .. can’t wait to see everything grow..
Tomato plants are great for practicing your pruning skills. For one thing , they are so determined to grow that you can almost do no detrimental damage to the plant by pruning. Another thing is that they respond quite quickly to your pruning efforts. Therefore you quickly see the results of different techniques. Then you can apply these lessons to other kinds of plants and have some idea of what to expect. In addition other kinds of plants will also grow new plants from the pruned cuttings. I often plant the cuttings from my blackberry plants. And then next year I will have new producing blackberry plants. Much better than having to buy more plants.
Wow Your farm looks amazing and prospering so well!! God bless you all!!
You guys are awesome. Wishing you much prosperity.
that was the very best and most visual description of how and why to prune tomatoes i have seen........you better believe i will be going out to my tomato plants tomorrow and following your process. thanks.
You are really radiating joy of life and I like your gardening - great info and nice existential reflections on life pruning -
Thanks so much for sharing! Love seeing your guys system and tomato plants
I enjoyed hearing your workshop! Hopefully we can chat at HOA in VA!
@@MikeTheFitFarmer let's plan it!
@@MikeTheFitFarmer some round table discussions would be great.
It’s a good system. I might have to start taking notes
Is a knife 🔪 a good pruning instrument???
LOVED LOVED LOVED this video- your tomatoes are fantastic & I am going to follow what you are doing Lacey. Cheers Denise- Australia
Mike this is your best learning video yet. Fantastic content and videography! Thanks so much for sharing.
This was so helpful. Thank you Lacie and hello Jason.
Excellent "sucker" demonstration.
And how to replant the suckers.
Thanks for this info especially the close up scenes ... enjoy the growing season good
I planted my sun gold tomatoes on a trellis this year. I thought it might work good. Hopefully it will. 👍🏼
Thanks for the tomato tips! I have not had a good luck with my tomatoes for several years. I love heirloom tomatoes so I will incorporate your tips this year!
Great video on tomatoes. I just transplanted 16 plants into my compost soil mixture along with chicken manure! Wish me luck and thanks for your tips! God bless you and your family.
Taking the day to catch up on some of your videos/ I really enjoyed this. Tfs. Be blessed
This video as usual was very very helpful. I would love to come see in person what you both are growing
Thank y'all SO much for all your info and good, clear videos. I liked the one about using the wire tunnel for tomatoes. Annette in Marietta
Love your channel. Be well.
Loved the intro .... please keep up the good work
Love this post Mike. You always have interesting people on your videos
Thanks for sharing the detailed pruning information. I needed it.
Always enjoy your videos. So much information and inspiration.
I really enjoy watching y'all Channel and I love how y'all explain things one day I wish to meet y'all I also live in North Carolina I live a couple hours from Charlotte
That would be great!
Thanks for the demonstration Lacie
You guys are awesome! Love your videos!! What a cool family!
Hi beautiful Dickson family! 🤗 Thanks for sharing this fantastic video, tips, and educational tours!👏👏👏 Just starting to plant my garden and this video came right on time! Blessed you! 🦋5/24/2021🦋
Love your videos and really appreciate how you explain how to's and what their used for an the names an how to grow and harvest the medicinal weeds.
Beautiful tomatos
Thx you 2! Blessings, julie
What a wonderful educational video well done guys! ❤️
✋ what I can get another 🍅 plant from just planting a sucker stem ? Blew my mind !
Isn't it cool!!
It’s crazy to see that!!! Amazing how strong these plants are.
My tomatoes go in the garden this week. Had to wait until the frosty nights were over 😪😩
You have some tomato ninja going on .
I need to prune quite a few of my tomatoes.
Awesome update and can't wait to see the drip system setup!
I just gotta ask a question, though (open question to anyone!): Does anybody manufacture a critter-proof drip-line (above ground/adjustable/bendable - not solid/pvc pipe)? I am tired of patching lines and replacing chewed-off emitters!
im looking forward to your taste test of the micro toms, I want to grow some but im waiting to hear from you if they taste good
💜💜💜💜💜
Mel was here
💜💜💜💜💜
This was good, what a variety..... thank you
Beautiful garden
Beautiful garden tomatoes 🍅 look 👀 fantastic great 👍 job
Farmer Dre RUclips channel has all kinds tomato tips
Great info..
Have a good evening 🌷🌷🌷
Hey it's Lacey I never knew that but I was wondering why my points kept falling over heavy but I'll start pruning them from now on thank you
We get so excited about soil!
Thank you!
Blessings love your videos
Wow live in Wisconsin and we have not even planted yet
Amen...
I see you guys all time
Good video
My tomatoes have not taken off yet but i have I believe big boys and they are maybe 6 inches tall and putting on flowers. I have never had them flower on suck a short plant, do you have an idea why they are doing this?
The baby is stealing the show!
Looks like y’all put some extra phosphorus in your soil with all the blooms you’re getting.
What root vegetables do you have planted ?
Hi family! I have 2 cherry tomatoe plants and have a question about the small flowers. Do I clip off?
Greetings friends...
I wonder what is the difference between a high tunnel and a greenhouse?
Lacey what do you use for skin tags
Do y'all have the tomatoes in a high tunnel to protect from too much sun? I just got these string hooks for the 1st time and contemplating how to trellis my tomatoes to use these. I'm in North Florida and wonder if I should create some kind of shade for my tomatoes before it gets too hot.
Can you use the tomahook system if you don't have a green house or high tunnel?
🌱 seed's need's a lot of care
Do yall sell your tomato suckers for your market garden?!
Lacy hows your flower bed doing? I planted six Buckeye nuts to grow trees from and a 🤨😡 squirrel or chipmunk dug them out and ate the insides. How do you keep predators from your greenhouse plants. I spent all these months of labor and then I’m fearful those varmints are going to destroy ll my plant babies.......sometimes I think buying from a farmers market look tempting...😏
Our dogs and cats keep most of the varmints out of the greenhouse and garden.
Always enjoy your videos so much . have you every had pest problems ? I feel like im getting the upper hand on my current spidermite problem but i could be wrong
Yes we have! We have had aphids, over abundance of grasshoppers, squash bugs, slugs, etc..
You must be in zone 8.. Your tomatoes are far ahead of mine..
7b
Mike do y’all move the high tunnel or is it cool enough in your area to grow in it during the summer? Bless You
It will stay where it is. the plastic doesn't go all the way to the ground so there is a good amount of air flow. The drip irrigation will help us control watering for our tomatoes so they won't split so much.
Does that apply to both Determinate or Indeterminate Tomatoes.. ??? The way you are explaining on Pruning tomatoes. I read that you don't do that to Determinates, as well as have heard its not required, and only on the Indeterminates . .Ninette Bird- The Caribbean
Wife.
We really haven't grown determinates so I can't really speak to those.
Every plant I started are just stagnant except for my potatoes...stressed this year
That's tough. We are finally getting the rain we expected in April now in the middle of May! I think things are slow this year.
