- In this video, I'll show you how to grow Dwarf Tomatoes, which are perfect for smaller gardens and spaces. They are compact, stout plants, but produce large tomatoes.
You can find many types of dwarf tomato seeds online, but today I'm going with a dwarf tomato called Purple Reign.
I like the way you post these videos so we can see from start to fruition.
I can only imagine how much time it must take to film these gardening videos AND your foodie videos. You’re amazing! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Mahalo! Yes the gardening videos take a lot of time, but the foodie ones not so much. I really appreciate you watching both!
I don't have a green thumb, but you have inspired me to try to grow something. I'll wait for this current heatwave to pass. Have a nice Labor Day weekend. 🍅
Awesome to hear, Alan! Have a great Labor Day weekend as well. 🤙
Trying to catch up on videos I didn't watch yet (yours!), you do such a great job with growing veggies!
Thank you!
Nice to see the progression of your tomatoes. We are growing an eggplant that we got from Home Depot using the Kratky method and have gotten some really nice ones that taste really good. We got some other veggies growing so we can't wait til we can harvest those too.
So awesome to hear! I love eggplant and having them around often in the garden is helpful to keep costs down in groceries. I'm so glad your garden is doing well!
You have a very calming voice, New Sub, love your plants.
Just coming across your channel! Hello from the Sunflower state! 🌻 I'll be subscribing.
Thank you!
Aloha Friday Misty!!! 🤙🏾
Aloha Walter!
Sick video 🔥 I just ordered some purple reign seeds, I live kapahulu hopefully they do as well as yours 🤙🏾🤙🏾
THANK YOU FOR THIS!
Hi I'm enjoying this video of Purple tomato dwarf got a question for you I heard that in your dwarf plants you don't have to prune your suckers is that true thanks for your video very encouraging to see your plants
Hi! I still prune them. Maybe it's a habit but I don't think it does any harm. If you don't have time to prune them and other people do not prune with no negative results then I would say go for it!
New to your channel. Interested to see your trellis.
How is this plant doing 4 months later? You inspired me to grow some dwarf tomatoes Kratky style. I got some from the dwarf tomato project (victory seeds hosts it)
The two plants are still going. I'm about to replace them with winter turnips in those pots though but they're still kicking!
Yes I ordered a whole bunch of dwarfs from Victory Seeds. Great company.
I've used your prior videos on 5 gallon wicking buckets and your test of several tomato fertilizers. Instead of what you used, I pored in Tomato Tone and fish emulsion down the bucket pipe. NEVER AGAIN. That manure smell was long-lasting.
I am going to start my Komohana tomatoes soon. I'm going to avoid the self watering bucket and stink fertilizers. Does blood meal and bone meal stink? Besides Epsom salt, blood and bone meal, what other fertilizers would I need? Mahalo.
Blood meal and bone meal don't stink. I wouldn't put any fish emulsion or any stink fertilizer in the pipe of the self watering bucket. Maybe Miracle Grow or some kind of non smelling pellet type fertilizer. I just sprinkle it on the top of the bucket and water from the top but very rarely for nutrients. Good luck with your tomatoes.
Love the video. What size would you say your pot is
The pot I used for the first one is about a 3 gallon. The second dwarf is in a 5 gallon fabric pot.
@@HawaiiUrbanGardener so I can use a 3 gallon or do you suggest 5 gallon for dwarf tomatoes. Thank you so much for your help
@@christinebarnaby7303 you can use either one. Both are doing well in both sizes.
