My Favorite Tomatoes For My Home Garden and Market Farm
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- Heirloom tomatoes were my gateway drug into gardening. Once I experienced a home grown tomato fresh off the vine and hot from the summer sun I was hooked. And this video includes some of my very favorites!
You know you're a tomato lover when you enjoy listening to someone talk about tomatoes for nearly an hour lol. I'm growing many of the same varieties.
I could watch this gorgeous lady talk about anything she wants as long she wants to
This is my dream to make a blue zone where we get land. Grow all the food and feed our community! What a great way to give back fresh organic food and save money by coming together. Keep up the hard work it’s paying off!
Love your farming passion. I laughed when you said you have to think about boring stuff like profitability. As my grandpa would say “you look like a movie star!”
She IS a movie star!
I’m so jealous of all the tomato varieties you have in the US. Here in New Zealand we don’t have many varieties because we have laws that help to protect our native flora and fauna, which is great, but… it definitely makes me jealous that we don’t have a lot of those varieties. The good news is, we have Sungold here for the first time. I’m really excited to grow it.
Love tomatoes. I love my heirlooms but have really gotten into the dwarf, determinate varieties. They handle our heat and humidity better and are between 3 and 5 feet. Favs are rosella purple, purple reign, Bella Rosa. I’m trying so many new varieties this year.
I'm glad I found your channel....I, too am tomato obsessed. Happy gardening.
My favorite slices: Mortgage Lifter, Gold Medal, Giant Belgian Pink, Aunt Rubies German Green and Cherokee Purple. I must say, this was quite a tasty video. I can't wait for my next Heirloom BLT.
Aunt Ruby's German Green is definitely a top five tomato, isn't it!
I am from wva I love growing tomatoes and eating them I am trying to grow new typt of tomatoes this year like black beauty and black cherry and black strawberry and Thomas grape and Thomas grape
I watched your "All about TOMATOES! A walk around the garden" video showing the end harvest result of some of these. I'm glad you're trying all of these instead of me.
My toms have been blighting out the last couple of years. - Mainly from being under water from the rains in August. I switched to more later hybrids and determinates. I still ended up with 14 different varieties.
But you always have to, have to, have to, play with something new in the garden. Gardens are just large sandboxes for adults.
I Love to talk about Tomatoes and I'm pumped to about this year. I'm growing almost all the orange tomatoes you mentioned and i am going to try 5 new tomatoes you mentioned in this video for next year.
I'm growing 41 varieties of Tomatoes this year and I'm very excited for this year.
Crnkovic Yugoslavian, Villinger, White lady and Lemon Boy plus were my winners last year. A cherry tomato winner was Midnight Snack. Thanks so much for this video! And happy Gardening this year!
Dude, you're my favorite. Mostly because you are as crazy about tomatoes as I am.
This channel is great. I have now gone down the tomato rabbit hole. Its all good though. So many tomatoes, so little garden space. Trying Black Beauty and Napa Chardonnay for the first time this year. Excited!!!
I'm down the rabbit hole, too. Definitely not enough space to grow all I'd like.
Never stop making tomato videos! Last year I learned I love saladette (2-4oz) tomatoes. Normally I grow slicers and cherries. This year I’m growing all saladettes and paste and 1 slicer. Fingers crossed I don’t regret it lol.
I am tomato obsessed as well. I have watched many many hours of your vlogs. Some reason I can't click off of your videos. You are the only person that I actually watch all of each video because you have a WONDERFUL personality and obviously you are very easy on the eyes. LoL.. I just really like the idea that someone can just trip into a hobby that draws so much passion and can turn it into a wonderful life. You seem to have the PERFECT life. Happy and fulfilled in every way it seems. You and your husband hit the LOTTO for sure. You seem to have a great supportive husband and 2 beautiful children. He struck gold because he found a beautiful woman that has a wonderful personality and is completely loyal and raises her own children and homeschools without having other people do the lions share of raising the children by sending them to public school and daycare. I really do think you couldn't have a better life with a BILLION dollars. If I could choose between the Mega Lotto and what it seems your family has I'd choose the family life EVERY TIME! I know this is very deep for a comment on a video but I don't EVER comment on anyones videos but when I do I always seem to go deep. LoL. Keep up the beautiful Homestead and what seems to be the perfect life. Kuddos!!
Awesome 🎉❤
Hello 🤗
Great Video 🎉 I subscribed to your channel and gave a like 🙏 Have a happy day..
Thanks for the great recommendations over the last few years. I learned a lot from you.
thank you so much! ❤️
Thank you for your message at the end of your video. So many of my neighbors/friends don't understand why I work so hard growing my garden and preserving it all. It's so much better for us to eat real food...and so much cheaper, too!
Good lord I'm not gonna have the room to grow the list I saved of your favorites! In all I picked 37 tomatoes I reckon I'll have to go thru the list and pick a few of each color, striped, and of course the unusual black variety! Thanks for all your tomater expertise and knowledge with luck I'll have some success growing next year!!!
Here to learn everything about gardening because my partner picked it up as a hobby but refuses to research so I have to finish/fix our new garden 🎉
Totally love the sungolds.. but now I’m growing Sun Sugar because they don’t split as easily.
OMG..THE BEST INFORMATION..THIS VIDEO WAS THE BEST EVER..AND YOUR HAIR IS SO BEAUTIFUL ❤😊ALWAYS SUPER FANTASTIC VIDEO 📹
So ready for some tomatoes 🍅 ❤
Great details, thank you so much! Can’t wait for the harvest review, maybe do it with your family, please?
First vid, I was enjoying, then you said "we got food at home"..😂😂😂 I subscribed! Getting some green tomatoes, I've been trying to grow tomatillos, no luck, green tomatoes may be better to grow.
Your husband has to be the HPPIEST man in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD! Waking up next to you with that crazy beautiful curly hair and devestating blue eyes.
I kinda forgot the fact that you've narrowed down your list 😆 I love your enthusiasm though, I marked the ones I have out of these to make sure I grow them ☺️
I just stumbled upon your page today on youtube. So excited to hear about tomato seeds and why you grow certain types etc.
I'm a new subscriber I'm in Tennessee
Hola un saludo desde ESPAÑA me en cantan tus videos 😘👍👏👏👏
I have religiously grown Isis Candy Cherry tomatoes. If I had to choose one variety, it would be this one ALL DAY LONG! I like to core them out and stuff them with a garlic/basil goat cheese. Great summertime snack!
ohh yum! definitely trying that this summer!
I would trade 1000 other tomatoes for one large, ripe German Johnson. They are ugly and prone to splitting from too much water but they slice so fine and cover a slice of bread with extra on the sides. Some Duke's mayonnaise and Rawleigh black pepper. Oh my. Marinara from German Johnsons is divine. Our favorite heirloom, by far. We have seeds but can't grow them because we live on a sailboat. Sprouts? Yes. All day long.
I hope you do the tomato tasting you mentioned... you're growing really interesting and delicious looking varieties
Rosella and sun peach are amazing sweet. They are like eating honey. So good!
Love to visit to learn & sharing Where organic seeds .
Cherokee Purple, Berkeley Pink tie dye, German pink giant are the best for flavor for us.
The only way we have been able to grow good tomatoes without problems is lay fresh horse manure down and let it sit for a year in the next year's spot. Then move all but about 2" and till that in. These heirlooms produce til frost that way, but will always produce and then die off by August in any of our other garden spots, even when we add organic fertilizers.
Blossom end rot is a problem here, but not with the Horse manure pile method.
Fried green tomatoes are just lovely. I like to put some fresh lemon juice on them as soon as they come out of the cast iron pan. So YUMMY! 🍅
I hate green tomatoes. I make fried ripe tomatoes. They are so yummy!
I have seen where someone tried growing dark tomatoes in a greenhouse and they stayed green. I love tomatoes
Kim might be the best in knowing how many different types. Her other videos at harvesting are proof of what she says. We know people by their deeds. Pluck a tomato of the vine and eat it with no thought of "I have to wash it" you can't do that in a store. And she has no fear of Monsanto on her family dinner table. "She thinks out loud and I learn from what she says. Like subscribe and share.
Wapsipinican Peach is my family's favorite tomato!❤
Baker creek been my go to seed company. They have the best hot btu peppers. Nice green room!😮
Your next order from MI Gardner you should try champagne bubbles it's a yellow cherry tomatoes absolutely delicious
Just found your channel. I tried San Marzano last year. I've grown Juliet for years. You can't tell them apart really but I found Juliet to be sweeter. We just can them whole. For being a paste tomato, we eat them like candy. I thought I was a tomato freak. You dethroned me. I'll crawl back in my hole! :-)
I loved the colouring of this variety. They did not produce a lot of fruit but I have lots of shade here in Ontario.
My new variety is ildi that Richard Perkins in Sweden grows. Up to 50 even 100 yellow grape per stem. I got seeds from small comp. In Vanvouver Island.
Heyyy i have that same garden manicure 😅. I just found your channel and i have to say i love it!! You are absolutely adorable, fantastic hair by the way!!! So i will continue my binge watching of your videos ❤
I just saw tomato grafting for the first time a few days ago. I was thinking of trying it also. They had a little clip on them. Looking forward to tomato season.
👍✨✨🍅🍅
I love to hear what you are growing every year. I'm trying for the first time this year soil blocks and soil balls, they just seem so fun to do. I like playing in the dirt.😊 I'm looking forward to you doing some taste testing; I think that would be fun and so helpful . I'm Also growing Dahlias for the first time this year. Well see how that goes.9
I loved your commentary! thank you! Caroline
You're a goddess! Yes queen!
Please try an Aunt Ruby;s German Green our family favorite.
I love that one! im just bad at green tomatoes bc I never notice when they are ripe haha
Have you ever grown Campari tomatoes? Not your favorite size, but what a TASTE/ FLAVOR!
Good morning. Johnney's seeds have one called Sunpeach that comes highly recommended by other growers on youtube. I'm not sure if you have tried it yet. I would like to see you test Sungold select to see if it's any good. It's an open pollinated version of the Sungold.
All the taste are in the nature
Very nice 🍅🍅🍅🍅🎉
My green zebras have been different from the ones I remember from the early 2000's. Much bigger, not as stripy, and 1 year they were red with stripes.
Oh boy jump into the world of dwarf tomatoes for your back porch. Once you do orange hat will be forgotten lol my favorites so far are Vilma and ola polka your welcome 😂😜
Sharing to everyone of Jesus Christ, He is coming back. We are spiritually saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ our Lord God and Savior.
Hey JC! Sounds like you’re already here! 😂
Me: I want weird tomato.
Kim: We have weird tomato at home.
Awesome commentary.
My green zebra were 9.9 to13.2 ounces. Wow.
You have a fabulous collection! Pink Tiger is my ultimate favorite little tomato. I grow the whole series, Blush Tiger, Pink Tiger, Green Tiger and Lucky Tiger. My Sungold was eaten by something after I transplanted. I am heartbroken. But I'll have 3 Pink Tiger plants. My favorite large tomato is Hillbilly. It's like Pineapple but better. I have a short taste test for it on my channel if interested. Hillbilly is the only tomato the neighborhood squirrels eat, so I have to bag it.
I spit Isis Candy out. It has some aftertaste I don't like. Isn't that weird? Paul Robeson, I tried three times and the plants weren't healthy, did not germinate well and the flavor was meh. Two different vendors.
Growing Orange Hat for the first time this year. Really curious about Brown Sugar too.
Liked and subbed. Happy growing from SE SD/5a.
I did the same shopping spree and have some of the same Baker Creek tomatoes going. Unfortunately with the Auriga "resistant to cracking" is a codeword for nasty-thick skin.
Barry’s crazy are super good, brads atomic are super stretchy I found
Have you tried the cherry Brandywine? I found seeds, excited to try this year
Yes I am a lover 🍅 also
❤❤❤
wow - and everyone I know (including me) finds Orange hat an absolute spitter :). So many better tasting Micro Dwarves like Vilma, etc.
Have you tried sun sugar cherry tomatoes? Sunsugar is sweeter than sun gold.
Lover Sun sugar! Less cracking here in Vancouver.
@@robertma2146 Soo gooooood
If you can, show us later how this works out! Please
Amen
1923 Abe Lincon is best ABE I heard
Waving those packets around made these old eyes unable to focus....

Engineer your own tomatoes
How about some yellow tomatoes 🤷♂️ there sweeter 😋
Where do you live? I’m in zone 9b, Texas a lot of heat and humidity.
Indiana!
So what is the huge gigantic variety from MI Gardener that gets as big as a watermelon? I didn’t get the name 😂
Watermelon beefsteak from MI Gardener 🙂
@@KaylaGraystitches thank you 😂
Have you tried “Sun Sugar”?
Yes I love that one too! Not much difference for me in sun gold and sun sugar though
I want taste and produce
Hoosier favorite?
Please try to not talk with your hands, I could never see some of your packages- -
Nice hippy girl
