Tips for Growing Tomatoes

 I have my tomato plants.  and I was so happy when I first saw the first fruit coming out.  and ofcourse back to Youtube to get more tips on becoming a better tomato gardener.  The video above gives lots of tips.  According to Reaganite71, youtube user, you should spank your tomatoes to yield more fruits.  Good idea.  because, I've been seeing lots of flowers, but no bees.  And spanking them or running a vibrating tootbrush, also does the job.  So from now on, spanking they will get, till I see more fruits.

Now, I just have to figure out about pruning.

Updates on my tomato garden

Yes, tomatoes garden.  I didn't plant anything else, because I'm really not confident enough on my gardening skills.  So I wanted to experiment and see what happened these plants before I do more gardening.   Besides I'm on a budget.  and I really did try not to spend too much.

I finally decided a permanent area for my garden.  I have this "eye sore" link fence in front of my yard and thought that it is the perfect place for the tomato plant because the plant can use the fence to support itself.  

After googleing urban gardens, I also decided to use cinder blocks as potting containers. 

they are much cheaper than these red potting containers and because they have no bottoms, the roots can continue to grow. and if my tomato plants gets any taller, I can add another cinder blocks right on top of it.  unlike any other plants, tomato plants will grow roots, if you cover their stem.

as you can see the tomatoes are starting to bear fruits.  yeah...!!!!

baby tomato fruits.
