  • What's good with you?

    From boxoskulz@1337:3/228 to All on Thu Mar 5 22:41:50 2026
    All my seeds I planted have sprouted and are getting big! I have five different types of tomatos, six plantings of each seed. What am I going to do with all these?

    Does anyone ever have any luck with already grown tomato plants? I had one several years ago that made quite a few tomatos but ever since then no yields. Does Big Tomato create plants that don't produce so they don't lose tomato sales? Are the bees dying off? What gives?

    From my experience, that actually is a thing, bio-engineered to produce one good yield and then subsequent seeds from those tend to be infertile. That is how they get you to go "Oh this was a good batch I'll get their seeds again!"

    Tis best to get your seeds and starters from nearby nurseries and talk
    with them about how to best keep it going year over year. When I lived in Kentucky I bought from a nursery there around 2009, and was able to have successful big yields year over year for about 15 years before I had to move.

    I've wanted to do this for a long time, but there are so many dang squirrels here they wouldn't stand a chance :/

    Over 50 years ago the Veterinarian I took my dog to had his office in the basement of his house.

    The ground along the outside steps had volunteer Tomato plant growing on the each side of the steps
    I was told their kids had eaten tomatoes there and throwed what they didn't eat on the ground and later tomatoe plants began growing there.

    Can't recall if that happened in later years, I have moved away from that area and use another Veterinarian in my new town.
