Tomato Garden

[Mike 64]

We planted some tomato plants this year, and now they are producing tomatos quicker then we can eat them. Miracle grow works wonders for sure. Anyone what I can do to preserve and store them?

You say Tomato...

I say Tomaaa-to!

This was my last year trying tomato plants. Every year I try 2 or 3 plants and everything goes great until the bugs get to em. I end up having to spray so much siagon on them it sorta defeats the purpose of organic home grown.

We did not have a bug problem here. We did have to scare off some rabbits though. I think they should change the state bird in florida to the "bug" ... :D

If bugs are bugging your plants, mix a little dishsoap with water in a spray bottle, and spray the plants. Should safely discourage the buggers from bugging your plants.
