Still some #tomatoes in my #garden but they are taking longer to ripen. We had a good season this #summer

The mulch under #tomatoes along with a drip hose not only keeps them from drying out in my #garden, it stops back splash onto leaves keeping the #healthy and strong

Look out for yellow leaves on #tomato plants in your #garden . They are telling you something and will attract #disease and pests

Have a look at your #seedlings. When the roots pop out the bottom, they are telling you they need a bigger pot. Time for an #upgrade

If you have run out of seedling trays, there is no reason why you can’t #Recycle something. I used two meat trays here. Don’t forget the drainage holes!

Keep turning your seedlings as you want then to #grow straight and tall, not bent towards the #sunshine

My #tomato plant already has flowers! Amazing how glass can change the #microclimate for plants.
