I’m so happy it’s tomato season again! 🍅
I picked my first 2 this week. Love this time of year!
Heading out to plant another 20 Tomato starts. Keep the videos coming! - Laveen, AZ.
Outstanding! Best of luck! We're roasting here in NC already.
I trim low branches on ALL my plants (tomatoes, peppers, squash, cucs, etc). It greatly reduces disease.
I agree.
Done and done!
Thank you!
Thanks for educating us on disposing the leaves. Great video. Short and to the point 👉
Very informative, from Ireland with thanks.
You saved my crop. I have not done this yet.
I'm glad I can help!
Thank you for the great gardening tips! 😊👍👍
You're welcome!
I’m just now setting out our tomato plants this coming week, so thus video is very timely. Thank you.
You're welcome!
Thank you!!!!
You’re welcome!
Great tips
Glad it was helpful!
I know you know your mulches, but have you tried alfalfa hay? A feed sized bale (tractor supply) usually covers about 200 sq ft of my beds. It breaks down over the season and provides some great organic material.
Thk u for your video so I can understand how to prune tomato, Greeting from Indonesia
Glad it was helpful! I appreciate you watching!
Excellent video, new subscriber. Going to get some Heirloom Tomatoes with my wife, living in NC Florida, zone 9 now for 5 years. Originally from Miami, it’s get Cold up here and Hot and Humid, so I’m learning what grows, Thanks. If. You see this, what is best way to grow from package Asparagus Ferns seeds. Thanks
Cool man thanks for the information . Hi Dale !!
You're welcome! Dale says hi 🐶
Should suckers be removed on "Paste" tomatoes? Wondering because I am growing cherry, paste, and slicer tomatoes, and all are getting bushy. Thank you.
Can I plant tomatoes in a 5 gallon bag?
I accidentally over pruned the sun leaves and it’s drying up now :( what can I do to stop it ?
What size grow bags for your tomatoes ? Hi Dale!!
20 gal for indeterminate, 7-10 gal for determinate or dwarf.
Just the video I needed but I have a problem. My leaves are turning brown and dying off. Is this a sign of disease or supplement deficiency? Please help.
This could be for a variety of reasons. If you're growing determinate tomatoes and they're ripening their fruits, that indicates they're reaching end of life and will naturally die back. You could have an issue with pests eating the leaves. Look on the undersides. You have have tiny worms, which usually causes small holes in the leaves and they will turn brown. You could be overwatering OR underwatering. Drowning or dried out plants will die off. Or, it could be disease.
Doing 6 tomato plants this year instead of 20 like last year
I think I scaled back to 60 😂 Sometimes, I wish I could grow less.
@@2MinuteGardenTips yeah I have to ask, what do you with all the food you grow? I imagine your neighbors are fed well!
@@ShroomunatiWater bath can your veggies!!!! I just put my zucchini in brine to pickle tomorrow ☺️
Dang…early blight already?!
The last 3 days have been 90 degrees. Our dewpoints are already over 70 degrees. We've had tropical downpours the last 3 days in a row. Summer is full-on, here. It's a steam bath. We always have blight in May to some degree here.
@@2MinuteGardenTips Dang! I’m only about 40 miles north of your area, so I hope my tomatoes can catch a break. We didn’t hit 90, but it hasn’t dropped below 70 for the past few days.
I’ve been pruning this week, but really want to try only taking off the bottom few suckers on the Hossinator and Red Snappers to see what kind of tomatoes they produce. Had some awesome plants going last fall and then we got hit with that frost/freeze.
Guilty!✋🏾
Or toss those trimmings to livestock.
I think my HOA doesn't allow livestock 😂
Ill keep preaching it, but your knowledge applies to marijuana (or hemp) as well. I see it all the time "whys my leaf like this" and its always the same thing as you stated in this video.
Any plants that suffer from fungal diseases can benefit from getting the low leaves "up off the ground" and out of the splash radius. It also provides additional airflow. You can apply these methods to peppers, eggplant, cucumbers grown vertically up a trellis, melon vines grown up a trellis, etc. Get those bottom leaves out of there once you have enough top growth to compensate for photosynthesis.
@@2MinuteGardenTips thanks for the reply. Your videos and info are great.
I started removing half of each leave branch all over the stem. So leave from plants do not touch to each other. Surprisingly plants like that, cut is healing and leaves continue to grow🙂
