anyone have random tomato plants sprout? I don't know if they're seeds from last years tomatoes that fell off or the compost but i have random plants growing outside my beds

Yes we do, we actually replanted a row of these random growing tomatoes and they did well and are ripening only a little behind our planted varieties.

You have something against weed? You must be in your mid 80s, or Amish.

I made great $ as a HS kid selling it. No complaints. But it’s a kids’ drug.

a garden fresh tomato is much more desirable than chronic in 2021.

Kids drug. Well I haven't worked my way up to the adult stuff yet. And I certainly have no problem with tomatoes. I'm eating them every day because I know the time draws near to those miserable excuses for tomatoes we'll be stuck with all winter long. I can't even eat a store bought until after the holidays, lol

Try the second method it is a little different than I was taught. My grandma taught me to wrap each one individually but basically the same concept. Not as good as on the plant ripped but way better than the store bought hydroponic grown tomato’s.

What a beautiful sight… the basket is seed garlic for next year, the rest is for us, family and a few lucky friends 2DB8006D-430E-4382-9B9D-952432CE074B.thumb.jpeg.274f59a37a731dc0db393ef5ed66c853.jpeg
 

Cool looking harvest! Is there something specific you are looking for to decide which is the “seed” garlic for next year?
You’re vampire neighbors must be PISSED!

The 50 biggest bulbs that don’t have more than 6 cloves get replanted for next year.

I've never tried it. But you say indoor is the way to go? That requires lighting etc, correct

yeah basically a whole indoor grow setup. tent, light, ventilation etc. It's not cheap but weed isn't great at growing outdoors in our climate, not to mention the whole winter bit lol. But even in the summer is very susceptible to certain diseases and pests.
