What do I do with all these tomatoes???
Comments (1)I've kept tomatoes over winter and they do ripen but it can take weeks, months. The ones I grew had a different taste when they did ripen, kind of like tomato paste. Bigger kinds can get kind of tough veins inside too. It is temp related I think....See MoreHi y'all...and what do I do with this crazy thing?
Comments (13)Hi Mike, nice to meet some other Okie plumie lovers! Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it. Somehow I just knew y'all were going to tell me to cut it into pieces. Yikes, I'm scared-lol. Should I try to make the cuts and root it now or should I do as Moonie suggests and wait until spring? I have to admit, I did go to Southwoods and buy another plumie last week. A miniature Divine this time. Didn't want to take the chance of growing another monster-lol. I've also been eyeballing a Scentsational in full bloom. It smells good enough to eat but I'm not ready to spend $80 on a plumie. I went back today just to smell it and talk myself out of it for the 3rd time. I'd love to have the name of any local nursery that sells plumies! Moonie, thanks for the advice ! I appreciate getting help from plumeria growers with more experience and know-how than I have....See Morewhat do i do with all thw green tomatoes?
Comments (10)I'll soon be in the same boat, but thankfully it doesn't look like I'll be affected by the frost currently sweeping across the country. Regardless, at some point, the tomatoes will have to come in and, like you, my Sunsugar is quite prolific. I haven't had much luck ripening anything off the vine (tried apples in a paper bag without any luck), so would love to hear from others....See MoreWhat do I do about this caterpillar thing inside my spinach leaves?
Comments (1)They're called leafminers. You can squish them while still in the mine. Next time you plant spinach, put them in a different spot in the garden and immediately cover them (seeds or seedlings) with floating row cover. Loosely blouse the covering and secure the edges with rocks, soil or something similar.
