RE: Homegrown Tomatoes.

in #tomatoes7 years ago

I agree with you @ctrl-alt-nwo sir,
Homegrown tomatoes are the best. Every year I plant a cherry tomato and have always had success in getting a bumper crop. Last year, for the first time, squirrels had been stealing lots of tomatoes as soon as they ripen. So while you can try to keep them out of your yard, it’s usually better to outsmart them. To protect your homegrown tomatoes against squirrels wrap individual plant of tomatoes in small pieces of bird netting. Squirrels seem to be most interested in stealing tomatoes just as The Big Boy tomato is a classic variety that has great flavor. This is a big, sandwich-type slicer with smooth, bright red fruit. Big Boy tomatoes are resistant to cracking.

Extra-large fruit
Rich flavor
1 slice covers a sandwich
Indeterminate, grows tall and produces throughout season


Cherry tomato plants produce sweet, small gems that are easy to grow, and they ripen quickly. So flavorful, it's tough to resist eating them straight from the vine. They're wonderful as a healthy fresh snack or tossed into salads.

Bright orange, red or yellow when ripe
Intensely sweet flavor
Heat-tolerant
Indeterminate, grows tall and produces throughout season
Disease resistant
