Omg. And they’re from the Americas…
This is like rice becoming expensive somewhere in Asia-Pacfic.
Tomatoes are one of the easiest plants to grow. Even on an apartment patio. You can do it in a Home Depot bucket just punch some holes in the bottom.
Cherry tomatoes especially pay for themselves. I would not recommend heirloom cherry tomatoes, they tend to be smaller. In some cases, hybridization is a good thing.
Recommend Cherokee Purple as your general tomato. The flavor is much better than anything out of a grocery store. Pure tomato. It’s so delicious you can eat it like an apple.
Very forgiving plant for gardening nooba.
I literally have 4 plants growing outside right now in a tiny patch. And 5 extra in cups inside I’m trying to give away.
All started from a pack of seeds from the dollar tree.
They just need a lot of sun.
Grow like weeds.
The flavor is much better than anything out of a grocery store.
Honestly, unless you live in a climate where they just don’t grow, grow your own tomatoes.
Even in the north of England, I grow tomatoes in pots and they taste like I’ve just flown them in from Greece
Honestly, by fall I’m just chucking the tomatoes straight into the compost because no one wants anymore for free
Yeah, but deer :(
That topsy turvy tomato planter is about to get really popular.
Maybe I should have savored the tomato I flicked out of my taco supreme at lunch…
Savoured? You could have sold it on for a couple of bucks!
