so with my mentor this weeks goal was learn about tomatoes.
Usama’s favourite colour is blue. Dark blue.
you do not prune cherry tomatoes apparently Roma tomatoes do not need pruning they ripen all at once and stay short Beefsteak like minimal pruning too hot and flowers will drop, too much nitogen more leaves, higher potassium and phosphorus, 2.4.2 Cordon Method better, hooked string, consistent watering – cracks and blossom end water, water from below to prevent disease, use mulch, grass clippings, pine needles
The Solanaceae family, or nightshade family, includes many edible plants like tomatoes, potatoes (excluding sweet potatoes), peppers (including chili and bell peppers), and eggplant.

I did learn and read about tomatoes but ive forgotten a lot of it.

Traveler Tomato – I want to grow next year, saw them on real seeds!
You can just rip off a chunk and the rest will stay good i think….
‘Reisetomate’ Pocketbook Vine Tomato
Well, how on earth to describe this? We think you’ll just have to look at the photo. This is a rather unusual tomato from central Europe that grows what can only be described as a cluster of cherry tomatoes all fused together.
They can be twisted off from the fruit bit by bit and eaten, or you can just use it to scare your children . . . . As well as looking very, very strange, they taste very nice, sweet and juicy with a thin skin.
I listened to more of the podcast and I made notes in my journal. Hmmm…. Need to locate this
Found, got more kimchee rice
