Thank you Luke I really needed this right now, I’ve had a really sad summer of no tomatoes lots of disease. Early spring I had quite a few tomatoes, I even sent you one. (Hope you liked it) I really really needed this right now, this was a great encouragement. 🙏🏽Thank you so much. God bless, keep growing 🥬🍅

My biggest mistake with growing tomatoes was planting all those jalapeño seeds 😢
I thought you were supposed to wipe your cutting tool between each cut? Is that only if you can see disease?
Great video and very helpful. Is there an ideal time of day to prune them?
Thank you very nice
I am over my tomatoes this year. Lots of Romas, all green. Last year, no issues. About ready to pull them all and chock it up to too much nitrogen in the soil. I even put a pumpkin in the soil last year after Halloween. It did not do wonders. Sigh! I am in Michigan, close to MSU.
Very helpful video, I just started sowing my red centiflor tomatoe from MIgardener indoors, I figured I have at least 3 or 4 months til our first frost why not lol, never thought to grow fall tomatoes before can't wait to try them 😁
Thanks. Do you have any videos on how not to have bitter tomatoes?
Some of the things that you had mentioned (such as pruning and not using so much fertilizer) I had been doing all along and it always worked out well for me!! Some people would advise me to pinch off suckers and to fertilize every two weeks throughout the season but I never followed through on that advice!! I never pinch off suckers but instead I prune off the bottoms and the extra side shoots!! As for the fertilizing, I do it twice during the season which I think is plenty!! I didn't know that leaving the flower stems on your tomatoes extended the shelf life!! Thank you for that tip!!
There is nothing that tastes like a home grown tomato!❤
Very helpful post thanks .. I took delivery on some of your Giant Crimson seeds in July and planted one the day i got them It's about 20 inches tall now and starting to show flower buds it's in the hoop house so she'll have plenty of time to produce a few …Thanks
I don’t really understand what ‘watered two inches down’ means. You check the soil is moist two inches into the soil?
Can you do a video on black cherries. What can be done with them, how to care for the tree.
Thank you.
I think my biggest mistake this year was not planting my tomatoes deep enough and not watering deeply. I got a lot of tomato plants with shallow roots, and that did not help.
Thanks for the info, Luke!
I finally grew a couple Giant Crimsons this year. Last year they failed. All I can say is – not a fan. Was not as productive as other varieties I had in my garden. I'm glad you were able to save it and it was a great experiment. But I won't be growing them anymore.
