Nurturing a Bounty of Sweet and Crunchy Delights in My Organic Garden

As soon as I noticed the first signs of flowering on my tomato plants, I began pruning by removing the older leaves at the bottom. This practice, known as pruning, promotes easier growth and blooming of the tomato tree. To further support its upward growth and ensure the tomatoes are easily accessible for picking, I've prepared nylon fiber. This not only facilitates harvesting but also prevents the fruits from falling to the ground and rotting.

It's amusing because I didn't anticipate these tomatoes to thrive. I had transplanted them from a small plastic vase, with their leaves and stems quite dry, and initially, they showed little sign of growth.

Surprisingly, these tomatoes not only survived but thrived. The key was the 100% organic soil in which they were transplanted. Comprising vegetable and fruit peels with a touch of soil or sand, and layered over coconut husk to prevent quick drying, it proved to be the perfect blend for their flourishing growth.

I plan to gather some rotting leaves to enhance my tomato plant, and I'll also be collecting vegetable and fruit peels for my squash plants. With the weather showing a bit of heat and fluctuation, I find it necessary to water them twice a week, as the soil tends to dry out quickly. The inclusion of coconut husk beneath the plants before planting proves crucial in maintaining moisture.

I have a tip for all tomato growers—once it reaches 30 centimeters in height, trim the top of the tomato plant to encourage branching. This not only prevents excessive height but also stimulates the growth of new branches. Support the new branches as they grow longer, as this is when flowers and additional branches are likely to emerge.

Always remember to trim or cut the old leaves at the base of the tomato plant. Keep in mind that with fertile, 100% organic soil, the tomatoes will be irresistibly sweet and crunchy.

I appreciate those who supported and trusted me to create original content. I want you to know that I'll only be writing about my plants until March. I'm considering stopping because all my hard work in writing is being ignored due to the downvotes of a toxic Leader of Filipino from hiveph. If I didn't care about this site, it would have broken down like Steemit a long time ago, receiving automatic comments that most people dislike. Once again, Thank You very much.
