    Your book Market Gardener is my reference book each season. Even with a university degree in Agriculture I still find tips and tricks in your book. Great job!

    What a great setup! I’m impressed that you don’t know them on an hydroponic system as most commercial growers do!
    I love that you use soil and with worms and everything. Outstanding!

    Great idea on the plastic sheeting to reflect the light upwards. In our backyard garden we use a red plastic sheeting which is supposed to reflect the optimum light spectrum for maximum production. We grow determinent tomatoes since it's for our own use only but still manage about 15 lbs per plant in our case.

    guys, been born in a farming environment and this stuff comes natural, however when you have lost it all, it seems impossible to find any investors willing to help you get back on your feet again. land, greenhouses, soil preparation, irrigation etc is real expensive. think i scoured the planet for angel investors, VC firms etc and the answer keeps being no. So I dont know what to do anymore. I live in South Africa.

  • @MraLLn1
    @MraLLn1 Před rokem

    I have a question. Maybe someone here can help me with this. I am located in Georgia and next year I will be trying to grow around 450 tomato plants in two high tunnels. I want to graft all the tomatoes and I also want to hard prune them so that each one has two main stems. Just not sure which I should do first. Should I hard prune first to get the two leaders and then graft that to the root stock or should I graft the tomatoes first and once they are healed then do the hard prune to produce the two leaders. Can't seem to fine much info on this. Please help.

    • @TheMarketGardeners
      @TheMarketGardeners  Před 7 měsíci

      The best method is to introduce bumble bee hives, but in the absence of that you can shake the wire daily to distribute the pollen.

    @Henryprofile. Před rokem

    You said “lower lean them and start a new”. What do you mean by start a new? Are you saying you pick another stem on that same plant and focus on that stem growing vertically until it touches the top again and then you repeat the process?

    Doesn't the plastic ground cover have a huge benefit that was not discussed- as far as minimizing disease? The leaves look extraordinarily green and spotless.

    Hi there, does anyone happen know JM's spacing between rows? Bought his book & it doesn't say. Looks like maybe 3 feet?

    • @brucejohnson2369
      @brucejohnson2369 Před rokem

      probably 3 feet - that is a common spacing. usual in row is 1 head per ft of row for beefsteak and 2 heads per ft row for cherry/grape/paste

    What I haven’t figured out is why the tomatoes in the greenhouse never get blight; either Early or Late.

    • @brucejohnson2369
      @brucejohnson2369 Před rokem +1

      the foliage stays dry - wet foliage sets the plants up for blight
