- Growing tomatoes is an art and a skill. We have been growing tomatoes at Aanandaa for several years now, and each year we have gotten better at it. In this video we share our learning about growing tomatoes. If you get a few steps right, you can get a bountiful harvest of plump, juicy and big tomatoes - fit for the market, and of course fit for yourself. Start with some good seed of open pollinated seeds. Make seedlings in your own nursery. After 3-4 weeks they will be ready to transplant. Remember to plant them deep into the ground. And most importantly, trellis them up. As they grow, remove all the vertical branches emerging from the armpit of the leaves. This will ensure the plant does not become a bush, and you get less vegetative growth and more fruiting! Watch this video to see the tomatoes growing at Aanandaa!

Wow just so practical and on ground video . So well explained 👌🏻👌🏻😍. Infact I must share the story of my son he got so many learning form your video . He grows tomatoes for years in your very small balcony . But this year he’s been observing that his harvest has been much lesser then what he has seen before . He’s been asking me what the reason could be . Moment your video came up I showed him and he’s actually replanted some 2 of his tomato sapling much deeper in the pots.
Great 👍
🙏thanks mam for sharing yours own experience

Hello Ma'am! You have introduced me with a great method of growing tomatoes. I had 3 questions . Would be really grateful if you could answer .
1) Which variety of tomato did you grow ?
2) How much did the per plant yield on a average?
3) I have seen you have done companion planting . Which plant suited tomatoes the best ?
Thank you again .
Very grateful 🙏
Love the soil

Wonderful mam...
Its soo inspiring and a wonderful time watching u videos.....😊😊🙃please can u also make a video on the trellis structure.......🙏
Hello!
Thank you so much for sharing all your videos and experience with all of us through youtube.
One suggestion, if you could also add what fertilizers you have used, pest control meassures you have taken and their timing, would be of great help.
I really look forward for your videos, and you have an inspiring journey, it motivates young people like us to get connected to nature.
Thanks a lot🤗🤗
Noted. Will make those soon
Thank you so much Mam
Beautiful
Thank you
Ananda is always Ananda.
Indeed!
Nice method
Lovely. Can u do a video on companion planting of tomato and other veggies
Nice....
Thanks
You can make full video on Trellis. Its really nice. Well subscribers are still waiting for Farm infrastructure video series, no video after Fencing video. Lot to learn and lot to discuss.
We are running late, we know. Will try to get that out soon! Thanks for your patience.
Very interesting ...one question - do the tomato plantations continue to grow beyond the bamboo / trellis structure ? Any recommendation on the max height of the trellis ?
Depends on which variety of tomatoes .. determinate or indeterminate. Make the trellis as per the size of the tomato vine.
Thanks for sharing this. Im following Ananda from quite a sometime.
Tell me what you will do if Plants exceed the height of trellis.
Good question. We will probably run the plants horizontally along the length of the trellis. We may even cut back the main stem, and allow some shorter laterals to take over.
Thank you for this insightful inputs... which fertilizer do you use and how frequently?
We use cow manure. As and when we feel the soil needs it.
Wonderful... I am learning so many things from you madam. One question, where to buy mulching at initial stages. Please consider my query and respond please. Thanks.
You will have to check locally - wherever there is a timber market, or any tree cutting for road widening work, you will find wood chippers.
Manisha ji,
You are an inspiration to us desk bound city dwellers with dreams of a simpler and enriching lives. I am a big fan of the way you explain not just your successes but also your failures and what you learned from them. Please do keep up the good work.
I am curious as to what varieties of tomatoes are you using and what is the correct time to plant them here in northern India especially in central UP region?
Do we buy saplings from nursery or germinate our own.
Do share this little bit with us
Regards
We grow both tomatoes and cherry tomatoes - not sure about the specific variety name! You can plant tomatoes twice in the year - once around Sep-Nov and the other time during Feb-Mar. Ideally you should have tomatoes growing in your garden round the year.
Madam how to start I don't know about this and also don't know the method
Please makes video for tarrece gardening 🙏🙏
I don't do terrace gardening. Therefore it will be misleading for me to make videos about it.
How do you sell the produce.. if your helpers are doing it.. how do make sure that they are giving you the right figures about the produce..
We are always personally involved
Your soil looks really healthy and porus.... How did you manage to transform it completely from a barren unused land to this healthy soil cover??
Manage water by building swales, plant trees to build porosity and aerate the soil, and mulch with the biomass generated by the trees.
Thank you mam,You have great experience of growing tomatoes as well excellent demonstration.But what about flowers plz.go through some flowers video.o.K
thanks for your comment, here is our flower video - czcams.com/video/1pSRuaKegHU/video.html
we will surely make more in the future
Really enjoyed the video. Question, how long does a tomato plant live and continue to give fruit?
As long as cold wweather kills it
We will document that now.
Thanks for the demonstration about planting tomato plants. Very informative indeed. Do you have problems with snakes in the farm?
No, what possible problem could we have?
@@farmaanandaa
Guess, my question was unclear. I mean ,have you encountered venomous snakes in your farm/ plantations?... I am very scared of them.,😊
Mem aap jis tarah ki farming kar rahe hai "permaculture " . Kya isme kabhi bhi mitti ko Rotavator ya tiller ki jarurat nahi padti shuru se? Aur aap khaad kya dete hai ?
No rotavator or tiller. If needed we do manual tilling.
Khaad is gobar khad and jeevamrut

Iam also from chandigarh,Can you please tell me from where you have purchased all agro and fruit plants
This was really helpful! What is the best time to start seedlings? I live in Gujarat so the months between March to June are extremely hot. Do tomatoes do well during monsoon or is it best to transplant in October?
Feb and October are best months
@@farmaanandaa thanks so much. So ideally one should start seed sowing by mid August so they would reach sufficient maturity for transplant? Sorry these might be extremely basic questions for you.
Mam house tour k bhi ek video banae. Kya aapka house bhi traditional bna h
👌👌🙏
Can you please tell me from where you have purchased all the agro and fruit plants
👍🙏
If we are putting mulch, how do we put manure, should we remove mulch that time ?
Use a liquid fertiliser like Jeevamrut.
Hi Good Structure for plants, What is the height of Trellis?
About 6 feet.
How do u Manage snakes in your farm
We leave a wild life zone for them and they stay there.
Mam how much time does a tomato plant take to give a fruit ?
Which variety of tomato ,you have chosen ?
Not sure of the name of the variety, but we have both big tomatoes and cherry tomatoes.
Namaste didi. For past three years I'm growing defferent crops in my homestead organically. It's like a mini permaculture model or food forest you can say. But I'm having trouble with tomatoes for last two years. First year they were completely healthy and had a great harvest. But last year and this year most of the plants got infected may be by blite or something else. I used turmeric powder but not recovered thought later on some succers came from bottom and I had a little harvest. Is there any good organic solution to prevent from fungal attack?
For fungal attack, khatti lassi (sour buttermilk) spray is the best. Make lassi, let it rot for a few days. Dilute is 10 times and spray
Thank you. I will try this.
Also change the location of the tomatoes each time you plant a new bunch
Sure. I'll follow this advice. Thank you again for your quality time.
I did all this and still my tomato plants start to yellow after one round of fruits, would that be a watering or sunlight problem?
Erratic watering?
@@farmaanandaa we water them well everyday and same amount too...
Thanks for another useful video! Personally I don't think BG music is of great use when someone is speaking when compared to none.
what about using determinate variety of tomatoes.
Yes, that is an option. Our seed is all of the indeterminate variety. We like to have tomatoes around the year.
Can we fix a land mass having saline water.
Do earthworks for rainwater harvesting. Rainwater will wash out the salt from your land over time.
क्या पर्माकल्चर में जो हमरे पास पशु होते है उनका चारा भी फ्री हो जाता है
Which branch to keep and which not, couldn't get it.
Keep the main branch. Remove the lateral branches growing in the armpit of the leaf.
@@farmaanandaa thanks🙂
I think you are using a mobile phone to record. When the phone is away for long shots audio is feeble. Please use microphone to record audio.
Noted. Thanks.
What is the reason for removal of lateral branches ?
To prevent bushy growth, and allow the plant to focus on the fruit.
Thanks for the reply !
Namaste Madam, how do I contact you for permaculture course and/or farm visit.

Please mam,let me know how you deal with snakes....I would like to listen any story related to that....
We don't deal with snakes. They mind their own business and we mind ours!

you lost all the respect when you said that poor watchman should not be let relaxed to overlook your fields in the night......that is why you had constructed that shelter in a bad shape........you stand exposed...madam....respect poor people....big madam......India is full of your kind of people
Sorry to hear that. Our nightwatchman is our oldest employee, who we have watched grow from a youth to a married man and father of two children. At every stage of his life we have supported him and helped him. He works through the night and sleeps during the day. He constantly jokes with us about not wanting to be too comfortable at night, lest he fall off to sleep on his duty (that's what he calls it). We were simply echoing his comments here.
Hindi me video s banaiye please.
