Thai Tomatos

10 years ago

I thought I would post this updated photo of a couple of Thai Tomato's I planted 3 weeks ago in in my drip system , using an old fish tank covered in black plastic, with the tray mounted on top , and vertical ropes to assist the growth and care of these plants.
I might add I am using a dry A and B nutrient mix watering about every 30 minutes.
These are growing outside under the patio beside our pool.
I might add that I have not had to change the nutrients since our trip overseas for about 4 weeks.
Small fruit have been set and I am happy to see such happy healthy plants.

Hi Cole Robbie thanks for asking I have attached some information and photos I downloaded on these tomato's they are growing extremely well and are starting to fruit, they are very hardy and resistant to cracking, and water damage.
They are an heirloom variety that I bought on ebay along with some Arkansas tomato's that are going well in my ebb and flow but are not flowering yet. These little beauties are roaring along without any attention.

would you be interested in some purple stripe garlic i grew this year? not sure i have any bulbils/seed left (which takes a long time anyway, though i might have some more) but i have a couple of dozen whole bulbs left from this years harvest. i originally got the seed garlic at my farmers market here a few years back, and didnt get any more specific variety name other than its a purple stripe garlic, but i have grown it for multiple years and can say it is excellent =) very very strong flavor, pretty color, nice size cloves. purple stripe is one of the oldest kinds, so this is considered the original grandmother type garlic. i will attach my trade list. btw, i enjoyed your photos =) some beautiful plants you are growing !

Thanks. I wondered which variety it was. I am growing a German Pink Egg this year. They are probably similar.

Hi Astaroth as per the photo just these plants are growing in Hydroton using a drip system as I have with all my other sytems Ebb and flow, Kratky Raft .
My ebb and flow I am also using a mixture of Hydroton and lava rock. I have given away all the other mediums as having too many negative side effects.
