Do they think they have to sit and watch them grow?..

If you're getting into a hobby for monetary reasons, chances are you aren't going to enjoy it in the long run.

I tried home grown runner beans. They're lovely.

I just got out of a water conference. The big takeaway was for me was that where sewer spills happened, tomatoes grow later.

[-] Sludgehammer@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

It's not too surprising. Tomatoes are usually eaten uncooked, so the seeds are almost always viable when they hit the sewer system. Add to that tomatoes are tropical, so when a seed hits the soil it's gonna start growing.

once you start composting youll end up having free tomatos pop up wherever you use it. you just gotta make sure the deer dont eat them.

Tomatoes are too fickle as far as I'm concerned. I grow all kinds of stuff, but never have luck with tomatoes. The flowers don't pollinate without vibration, they need temperatures in a tight range to fruit, basically every pest on earth destroys them, just not worth it to me anymore. Which is a shame because I love them, but I'm basically over growing tomatoes.

Dude, I grow tomatoes in a 4' x 6' plot of dirt by the sidewalk in Montreal with zero tending and I have more tomatoes than I know what to do with every year. What are you doing so wrong?
