TIP from a florist - cut the flowers before you put them into vase 0 under water. They won't suck up air and reduce life! Also, recut them as soon as you look them over and add more water. Recut just a small portion off and you'll give them a fresh straw tip to drink up the water. Also, always cut off any leaves that are under the water to reduce rotting leaves that will reduce water quality for your flowers. Hope this helps with your beautiful flower arrangements.
Thanks from a novice gardener on flowers and veggies
Yes
I've heard warm water is also better, is that true?
@@niknaksim I've heard that also but I just use normal tap water that is NOT cold. I don't know for sure it does anything but I know I wouldn't like being dunked in cold water without tightening up - LOL.
@@iartistdotme Is adding some asprine to the water helpful with longevity?
Your landscapers need to follow your channel, so they can enjoy their beautiful work for years to come! It really is a work of art!
They also need to take pictures of what they've done to present their work to other customers if josh and becky would allow it
Agreed!
ITS SO BEAUTIFUL I BET THEY MISS THE COOKIES
Becky, last year I made generic seasoned tomato sauce, then freeze dried it. It has become my favorite way to so sauce now. It's so nice to be able to just add water to make paste, pizza sauce, spaghetti sauce, chilli, and soups!
I used tomatoes, basil, olive oil and garlic. Yummy sauce
STOP IT. I do not have room (or time) for a freeze dryer and you are making me want one! LOL! ;) Your idea is genius!
A freeze dryer would be lovely but no room and certainly no money for one!!
@@theUcane LOL, nobody has time or room for a freeze dryer, but you need one in your life anyway! 🤩
@@janw491 I get it.
In my humble opinion, it is much better for your plants to use a knife or pruners to harvest so much of your vegetables. Twisting and pulling the vegetables may cause significant damage to the plant. Personally, since your peppers seem to be struggling; i would pick the largest fruit on each plant to reduce stress. They should then be stimulated to produce more flowers and more peppers and it will help the plants grow stronger especially if fertilized again.
I agree, it makes me cringe everytime Becky is out there ripping away, it is also makes it much more likely to accidentally rip away a main stem.
Yes, she need some small snips to cut her tomatoes, pepper and flowers. Twisting them off is not good for the plants.
And she also needs a Hori Hori knife for things ling the cabbage.
I agree she's way too rough harvesting the plants. I watch other gardeners and they are patient, meticulous to give the plant a chance to regrow and stay healthy. I'm learning to give my plants the best results. If you create the garden with love why not give it , love and patients during harvest. It is amazing what she has grown already. Plus get comfi, put shorts, hat, gloves and this brutal heat will be nicer to you. Rushing not in the moment just ruins the experience for me.
She always says she is no expert. For the knowledge she has and the short amount of time she has been gardening, I think she is doing fantastic! Keep up the good work, Becky. You will keep learning tips and tricks along the way and keep giving yourself grace ❤
@@brenkay354 They pick what's appropriate, they cut what's appropriate....peas should be picked and cabbage should be cut. It's damaging to the vegetables to smash them around.
Don't worry about the green tomatoes! Any that fall off your vine can be sat on the windowsill and will ripen naturally over time. They taste just as good!
They’d be lovely chopped up and added to a fresh salsa! I’m from the south and we love our fried green tomatoes!
Yes, fried green tomatoes
What about pesto
Never had fried green tomatoes but loved the movie and really want to try them.
I made a green tomato salsa verde that was AMAZING!! Since Becky loves salsa verde, I recommend that!!
You’re not rambling you’re formulating ideas it’s a kind of brilliance that we do when we’re ruminating and getting good ideas. You are a blessing.
You've inspired me to go back to my "roots"...pun intended 😂
I have a plethora of physical disabilities after breaking my neck and lower back. It stopped me from gardening. All my life I had a garden. My love of it began with my Late Grandfather and my Late Father. As a young child, my Grandpa would take me through his garden and show me the plants and how to harvest them.
After my accident, I was in recovery for a very long time. Then depression also made me not want to do anything. I'm a loyal subscriber and never miss your uploads and you planted (pun intended) a fire 🔥 under me bum to get out and get back into what I truly love. Although it's a difficult task because my torso doesn't bend or twist, I'm doing it. I have a small vegetable garden and have several different flower species to bring in the pollinators. Today I found my first couple of jalapeños and some tiny tomatoes growing. I also have a few cucumbers on my vines. Although I move slow and some days it's impossible, i gotta say Thank You Becky for lighting that fire and bringing that joy back into my life.
There's no better reward for all this hard work when you see vegetable on your plants and flowers in bloom!
Sending positive vibes and blessings from Northern Indiana 👩🌾🍅🥒🫑🌻🌸
God is great
@@hemphogg812: ALL THE TIME!
Today is my day off and I have the kitchen to myself. I tell my friends, I’m playing AcreHomestead today! Cooking some freezer meals then harvest some of my Zucchini. I’m so tickled pink that I have a producing garden on my first try. Thank you!
Yay!
Wow!! Look at that! Your garden looks fantastic! Your husband must be so proud of you and your garden! All the work that you do it just blows me away! Enjoy your weekend!
every time you say "hey friends" I say "hey becky!!"
She only says "friend" ....I wished she said friends cause it always makes me feel excluded like in elementary school and I'm 66 🤫
lol!!! I do that too!! It’s amazing how much Becky can make my day brighter!
@@annnoble7739 she says friend to make it more personal, like she's talking directly to You. ❤️
@@annnoble7739I feel like she is talking just to me, when she says hello friend. Lol So just think she is talking only to you.
It's all about me LOL I say hi friend back at you.❤
Next time you accidentally lose a green tomato, you can fry it! Fried green tomatoes are delicious! And most people dip them in a spicy sauce. I've also pickled green tomatoes that were on the smaller side. You don't have to lose anything!
I’ve been getting a lot of double yolks lately. One of my chickens has been laying huge oblong double-yolked and very brown eggs. I’ve been blending up two or four eggs in my small nutri blender and freezing them for baking and scrambled eggs. I freeze them in the smaller size snack bags, then put those in a larger freezer bag. It has worked out perfectly.
I have heard it helps to either add a little salt or sugar to the eggs before freezing, depending on what you will use them for.
Ouch! The poor hen. That has to hurt
If you take a green tomato and break it open and rub it on your hands after you've worked with them, it will take most if not all the black stuff off of your hands. I worked on a tomato farm harvesting tomatoes. Thats how we cleaned up at end of day.
You can never go wrong with Tomato paste and freeze-dried Tomato powder.
I have been gardening for over 50 years. I have never pruned a tomato plant. My plants go well and I get tons of tomatoes. We don't get much rain in the summer so I don't worry about disease.
I look forward to green tomatoes! My mother-in-law made chow-chow, and I was so excited that I was able to make it for my husband, and we can think of his mom whenever we have it! Chow chow is made with green tomatoes, cabbage, peppers and onion, canned in a sweet/vinegar brine.
My granny made chow chow. I would love to have some again for when I cook dry beans.
the cabbage split because you did not bring a knife to cut it, not because it rained.
It was already split.
@@cynthiafisher9907no it wasn't. The way she was pushing on it caused it to rip apart.
@@scrapbookingwithjen8622 She said in another video it was split and she would need to harvest it, I think. Idk, maybe not.
Becky you are never a failure if you learn something from any mistakes. Your garden is amazing, you re doing a Great job and I Love your enthusiasm. 🌻
Hi Becky, in NZ eggs in the supermarket are not washed, we also do not have to refridgerate eggs...totally different rules to the US...great harvest ❤
Same here in the UK, you just get used to finding the odd little feather on them.
I’m in the USA in the state of Georgia. I do not wash my eggs until I use them to keep the bloom on the egg for leaving out on the counter. If I wash the bloom off then the eggs have to go into the refrigerator.
Same in Ireland. In Europe, farms vaccinate chickens against salmonella. That means the cuticle is still intact when eggs are sold. Refrigerating eggs with the cuticle intact could actually cause mildew to grow
In europe too.
They only need to be washed if they aren’t gathered each day. Then they tend to have some poo on them. Simple solution- gather daily. 😁
Becky the work you go through to give us those flawless transitions from kitchen, patio and garden. Also throughout your kitchen 🙌 I appreciate it! You definitely meet you step goal at the end of the day just setting up those cameras.
Hi My dear girl! A important message for your followers…..that pruning tomatoes is NOT advised in all areas! Here in drought ridden with over a month of triple digits temps here in west Texas. Well we let our tomatoes keep their branches, vines and leaves to prevent sun scald and be a living mulch that assist with keeping precious water from evaporating. The secret here is do not touch your tomatoes. Met a broken hearted first time gardener here and she had nearly naked tomatoes with sun scald on Her tomatoes, and rest of vines withered and dying Bless her! It’s hard gardening here in Texas and have been all of my 64 years.
This has become the latest trend, I’m in a 10b and this year I am only trimming for ventilation. My plants have never done so well. I always thought how do we know better than nature how something should grow. Have a good one.
Becky I have a suggestion for you. I notice everything you use cilantro you cut off the stems. Have you ever thought about dicing them freeze them then freeze drying them then grinding it into a powder like you did your garlic and onion powder? Good to use in Chile's and sauce wo the salt that is in the bullion cubes sold in stores.
From an Italian grandma. Keep your green tomatoe, wrap in paper ( brown paper bag) then put in shopping bag. wait until it ripens. In a cool dark place they can last for weeks
Yay!!!! Im processing my garden harvest and loading the dehydrator when I got your notification. I'll be watching while chopping celery and onions for the freezer!
Hey Becky, do not worry moving forward. I thought I was going to lose ALL my tomatoes last year to disease, but I got a recipe from a friend in Newfoundland for GREEN TOMATO MUSTARD PICKLES! & they are delicious on everything. Tangy and sweet. It made me want to grow tomatoes just for the green ones 😂
My mom makes mustard pickle and people love it.
I have a confession to make, I never prune my tomatoes. Never have! I tie them up and make sure the root area is covered in a heavy mulch. I raised 1200 pounds of tomatoes last year and probably this year again. Granny said they will grow up and over the trellis and she was right!!!
I’m 70 and I have never pruned a tomato plant .and I’m not starting now. LOL
@@annebrunner9698Anne, Anne, Anne, when will you stop trolling Becky?
I'm 68 and the only time I pruned my tomatoes was the year I had a disease and had to trim affected parts back. It seems we have more plant diseases and insects these days than even 10 years ago when I still had huge gardens. I've only container gardened the last 10 years because of kidney disease and myelomylacia of the cervical spine. But I worked in the garden since I was 8 and I'm 68 now.
@@annebrunner9698 that's not nice!
Where we live in Oklahoma we leave all the leaves on our tomatoes to protect them from the sun. The sun burns them really bad here and we loose them.
Same in SW Idaho. We’re in a high desert, very hot and strong sun.
💚 That really is quite an accomplishment to start SO many of your plants from seed! Well done.😊💚
Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, love 💚 , and peace all over the world . I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust so as time goes on it will bring something great for us in the future, hope you don't mind? I'm Gabriel Wood from San Francisco, California where are you from if I may ask?
Hello Becky, you could use some of the cabbage to make cabbage rolls and freeze them.
Fried green tomatoes are delicious! I really was sad you threw those away. Your garden is beautiful! Thanks for all you do! 💕
Love fried green tomatoes!
I bought one of the tape guns this year. Word of advice-don't use the red tape on the tomatoes! Lots of false hope at the beginning of the season when I saw the red and thought my tomatoes had turned already lol
Holy cow! I've never seen anyone just rip the leaves off their plants like that!!! Lol, I guess I will watch and seen where it goes😮🥴😉
Anne is a troll. She only comes onto Becky’s channel to make negative comments.
@@cynthiafisher9907Who is Anne and why are you worried about what she writes? I keep seeing all these people protecting Becky as if we cannot ignore a rude comment. Just curious.
I got a smile when I saw a new video was out. lots of love from across the globe
You mentioned a tape gun for helping to trellis tomatoes, and we spent about $30 or $35 this year and got a good one! Just a tip - if the tomato plant stalk gets much bigger around than your thumb, it will need SEVERAL taped spots (on each stalk) to keep it on the trellis. Works well for peppers and beans, too.
One of my favorite things to do with green tomatoes is to make green tomato jelly. Also don't forget about fried Green tomatoes it's absolutely delicious. And if you make green tomato jelly try a jalapeno jelly
I mix my different types of lettuce all together then I line my large bowl with a towel, put all the lettuce on top of towel then cover the lettuce with another towel if needed, put the lid on bowl.
I find it stays fresh so much longer. Then if we want a salad we grab our bowel of lettuce. Then all I need is to add the rest of my ingredients.
Love your video as usual. Thanks❤
Over the years I have become sensitive to the oils on tomato plants. I now keep Lava soap on my kitchen sink during garden season. It is slightly abrasive and helps get all of that tomato gunk off my hands and arms after working in the tomatoes. When it is really dark I usually wash my hands twice to get it all off. Hope that helps you!
Pour a little sugar on your hands and rub the soap in with it while washing.... it'll take that tar, and all other sorts sticky things off.
Thanks for sharing your joys, I love hanging 🙂✨
I love fried green tomato sandwiches;)
I reclaim the egg washing water for watering plants.
Your video is a great reminder of the value of patience and perseverance. It takes a lot of time and effort to grow and harvest melons and oranges, but the end result is so worth it. And the fact that you're able to make a living by selling them at the market is even more impressive. Keep up the great work! And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.
I brought my green tomatoes in the house to ripen, it took a while, but didn't have to toss them. I love the video, learning a lot
Would it be a good idea to buy a wheelie bin so you don't put weeds on yr roadway which is weed free at the moment. U can also wheel it up to the chickens if you can give them to the chicken❤ loving yr vlogs xxx
Also get a crossbody bag and keep stuff u may need like a pair of gloves, scissors & knife in it when u go into the garden.
When you harvest cabbage, leave about an inch of stalk. Cover the stalk with a folded wet (wrung out) paper towel and secure it with a rubber band. Put it in a porous bag I poke holes in my gallon freezer bags. These will last for months and months in the frige produce drawers. I always plant more than I can use!
Hi Becky,
Love how you are just beaming in your garden!
Zucchini is so versatile when preserving , i make pineapple zucchini and zucchini relish as well as shred and freeze it.
Thanks to you for all your inspiration❤
Love it when you "ramble", Becky! It makes you come accross as so friendly and normal!! You are such a joy to listen to, and I soooo look forward to your posts.
God Bless you three.....would love to see your little boy, but I understand the privacy issues.
🙏💜
I had to do the same thing today .. after being gone for 5 days.. my plants exploded! And my tomitilos had several broken branches 😔.. my first time growing those..
Thank you for your inspiration Becky!
I freeze my shredded zucchini in 2 cup increments as that’s what my recipe calls for. Keep up Becky! This from one who is disabled yet not for long! Back surgery bound. 🥳
The new plant and the sweet potatoes look really nice on the kitchen counter!! 😀😀😀
Having a knife to cut the cabbage at the base is better then trying to pull or twist it.
I don’t if I can’t get away with not washing my eggs until I want to use them. Because once washed the coating that keeps nasties out is washed off and germs can get into eggs if not refrigerated. So I keep them dirty until I need them in the dark, cool cupboard. Been doing this for as long as we have reared poultry- 25 plus years and it has worked for us.I love the smell of tomato vines. Can’t say I have ever gotten Green/ black fingers from handling them.
Hi all you beautiful ppl. Thanks to time diff between South Africa and wherever Becky is in America. (Someone pls tell me where again) just after 7pm in SA and time to relax with Becky. So look fwd to her vids ❤

@@queenbee3647thanks dear
Hi Becky!! You are such a Joy to watch!! I had no doubt that what you planted would be successful! You have so much knowledge on gardening.I can smell that Zucchini Bread baking all the way across the United States.Take care Friend!!❤
Great harvest. Really, any harvest this year is a feat..this garden was a work in progress right into the planting season so kudos to you for getting plants in the ground! One piece of advice, you should cut when you are harvesting (instead of pulling, twisting and tugging), you will reduce trauma to the plants. Basil especially will yield a huge crop if you harvest while pruning it correctly.
Yes, all that pulling is damaging the crop. I was cringing at the cabbage harvest.
Watching on my last day of leave for surgery and recovery. Your videos gave me something to look forward to each week. TY! :) Currently watching as I do a home reset before going back to work tomorrow. It's supposed to hit 96 here in Pittsburgh tomorrow. And the air con in my car is broken. Say a prayer for my return-to-work soul? LOL!
Me too. Been out since May 2.
@@nancymcdowell9607 I was going crazy (ie so BORED) my first week. At the moment I'm glad I only took 3 weeks instead of the 4-6!
@OfCooksandBooks had stage 3 PTTD surgery. Non weight baring for 8 weeks. Quite painful. I go back on the 3rd of August. 4 1/2 in screw thru the heel to top of foot into clamps to make me a arch. I I hope you are feeling better!
@@nancymcdowell9607 ew oO. Here I am complaining about my hysterectomy LOL! Can't bend over, can't vacuum, can't lift 5-10 lbs, etc. At least my job is light duty so that's a plus :) Hope you're able to do some physical therapy :)
Where’s your sun hat? Your garden harvest shows your dedication and hard work! 🎉
I bought metal wire harvest baskets (off of Amazon), because it’s easier to wash veggies in, in the garden, with water from the hose, that I can then put directly back onto the vegetable plants…. No waste!
Hi Becky! Love watching your videos. I live in NC and purchased bushels and bushels of tomatoes, peppers and onions this year. I made tomato sauce, salsa, and spaghetti sauce and freeze dried it all. It was AMAZING! I also freeze dried sliced tomatoes which are so delicious! Put them on top of a grilled burger and it absorbs those juices….a little taste of heaven! 22:34
I should freeze one of your cabbage and hang it for your chicken's they will love it.
Pam here….with the little rain the extra leaves on plants hold in the moisture in the soil so doesn’t dry out in heat and doesn’t need so much manual watering.
Becky! Next time you end up with green tomatoes coming off the plant pickle them!! Pickled tomatoes are DELICIOUS!!!
Somebody was recently telling me you can do cabbage pizzas. Just cut them in big round flat circles and then put all the pizza toppings on and cook them in the oven. It sounded really good. I know you guys like your pizza might be worth a try.
I thought today I would be the first to comment and send Becky some love 💓 from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪 Africa
I just LOVE it. You are so living my dream. I will get to this place very soon. I am so in love with the entire setup of your garden. This is very similar to how I want mines to be. I love the clean spaced out raise beds. I do have a request. I would love to see you relax and just hang out on the couch enjoying the fruits of your labor. LOL The bread looks amazing. I'm going to try it for sure. Thanks for sharing doll.
Fried green tomatoes for those that broke off, delicious 😋
Becky I'm so happy for your harvest this year. I'm looking forward to getting better at this and as I do I'll have a better harvest. You've been at this for a while. You didn't give up ❤❤
@5:00 since u have a lot of lettuce coming out of the garden now . I thought u might give the leftovers for the chickens and harvest a fresh batch to consume the most nutrient salad each day
If you love a fresh salsa, it freeze dries and reconstitutes wonderfully!
HR is upgrading the freeze dryers! The medium will have 5 trays, all FDs will have 1 more tray in the new units. I’m an affiliate also.
My kids are on pins and needles wondering what was in the box from the vlog video. 😬😁🤪. They keep asking me if Becky opened the box?
When I make zucchini bread I usually add at least an extra cup so it stays very moist i then add a pinch more of baking powder and soda to give it the extra lift.I figured it out cause you always end up with just a little extra
Hi Becky, a little weed bag would be handy to throw the weeds straight into as you go, they are light easy to fold and store. Might even mean only handling some of the weeds just once. Greaaaaaat video, love your channel and garden xoxo
Becky a tip for you. Keep the wrappers of the butter you use and use that for greasing your pans.
Yes, I keep mine in a zip bag in my freezer.
Love spending time vicariously with you in your garden. I don't really have a garden space where I live but I'm planning to try container gardening once my baby girl is bigger. ❤
I am never disheartened when a branch with a tomato on it breaks because there's so many yummy and delicious things to make with green tomatoes! I really hope you didn't deny yourself the delish dishes of green tomatioes, Becky!
Fried green tomatoes are the best!! Here in east Tennessee it's a staple❤
I need to try fried green tomatoes :)
@@AcreHomestead absolutely! My Nana use to make piccalilli with green tomatoes too! And something that looked like it that she called “Chow Chow”. Also quite yummy.
Fried green tomato sandwiches also on pizza.
Speaking of things to make with zucchinis, I just made an awesome dinner with my first zucchini of the year 😋.
I made zucchini sandwiches with jammy tomatoes, melted cheese, and garlic mayo on ciabatta rolls. It was so good! Too bad my tomatoes aren't turning red just yet so it wasn't fully home grown veggies, but give it a few weeks and we may be making it again!
What a fun day with Becky! So much beautiful garden produce! That fresh zucchini bread looks delicious! We like to fry yellow squash with zucchini and onions and garlic to have as a nice side dish!
Always love the harvesting❤ so nice to plant and reap👍
I made lemon blueberry zucchini bread the other day, and we've been eating it for breakfast with fresh strawberries. Yum
Yummmmmmmm
Isn’t it nice having fresh flowers in your kitchen. Dry pretty!
Very…turns to dry every time. Sorry

I love the salad spinner. I wash my lettuce really well and then spin them dry. I will then put a zipper bag with a paper towel. It stays nice for two to three weeks.
❤❤ Look at that gorgeous harvest! I love it! You and I are in similar zones, the weather affected all of us, yet your garden picked up and started producing sooner than mine because it's a bit warmer a bit sooner! Yes, I used fertilizer etc. too😊. I love to see it, and I love to see the differences the weather can have! Well done! It looks great!

Great job!! Best wishes to you and your fam Becky!! ❤❤
Your garden is doing absolutely amazing! ❤
I made zucchini bread last night too! I add chocolate chips to mine.
قناتك جميلة جداً ، احب حديقتك والمنطقه التي تعيشين فيها😍🇸🇦🇸🇦
Becky you do a great Job at Harvesting and growing 7-29-2023❤
Stressed chickens lay small eggs. They were let out to roam then locked up in a small pen. I’d be unhappy too. Try more attention, more treats and things to peak their interest, food in ice cubes etc. Also, tip from a gardener, don’t pull off stems on flowers or green or veggies, keep a scissors or clippers out by the garden. Doing that will stress the plants.
Next time keep those green tomatoes and make some fried green tomato slices. Fried green tomatoes are so good!! They have a tartness to them and dipped in ranch dressing, it makes a wonderful appetizer or side dish. You might want to get a rolling wagon to bring your harvest in with. That might be easier for you than carrying the baskets.
She should be using the back of UTV they got ..
My Becky you are always into doing something for preserving. I know, it’s your mantra. House, baby, laundry, massive vegetation, it’s a lot for you. God bless you. Make sure you rest enough to preserve your energy and time well spent got family. I’m so proud of you!❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😅😅😅😢😢😊😊😊😊
I'm so thankful for the timing of this video. I'm having my last meal before baby # 5 and this eases my anxiety ❤
Congratulations on your new baby!
Can you tell us more about how you compost?
I have a spiralizer attachment for my Kitchen Aid mixer and I freeze all of my zucchini as noodles. It makes it so much easier (and cheaper!) in the winter when I want zoodles.
It doesn't effect the texture?
It seems like they would be mush when thawed out.
@@cynthiafisher9907 I just take them straight from frozen to a quick saute in a pan. They don't get too mushy.
@@loverlyredhead Not too bad if you sauté them quickly on high from frozen.
@@Notable2Nikki Ok, thanks! My husband is diabetic, so this sounds like a good option to store.
Every spring I hit the dollar store and buy rubber coated wire to tie up my tomatoes or other garden produce. It can be used for several seasons. I also tie my cattle panels to the T posts with it. It’s easy to take off and reuse.
Instead of twine you could probably hook a thin bunge cord on the hog panel to quickly hold up the tomato plants.
Becky there is a recipe for zucchini oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. They are crazy good. They are almost like a breakfast cookie. You might want to check it out. I can give you recipe if you can’t find it. 😊
Love your apron.
Zucchini bread is my favorite bread and pumpkin bread is a close second.
You might try freeze drying your ingredients for salsa. Then you can make fresh salsa anytime.
Your garden is doing so well! I got two eggs this morning from my four new Pullets! Guess it is time to integrate them with my two older hens!
Best time is at night when the older ones go to roost
@@hemphogg812 That is what I am planning…. This will be my first time introducing new birds to an existing flock. I used to just retire my entire flock at about 4 years old to a local school that had a huge flock of chickens… but.. they don’t have their chickens anymore….
Great harvest Becky! That zucchini bread looked delicious!❤❤❤
Fried green tomatoes are great 😊 And green tomato relish, salsa and pickles 😊
I broke the top out of an early girl with small green tomatoes on it, quickly dipped it in root hormone and stuck it in the ground. It never slowed down and the small green ones already on it grew and ripened and it just kept growing and producing.
I also wrap my lettuce in a towel and put it in a bag. Like you said, it lasts a lot longer!
