About this ebook
There is nothing quite like that first fresh, juicy bite of garden-grown tomato, bursting with flavor and packed full of healthy antioxidants. The only thing that makes that first bite better is when the tomato you taste is still sun-warmed coming straight from your own garden.
Growing great tomatoes isn’t rocket science and it doesn’t take the skills of a Master Gardener to make it happen. With a little work and a little water, you can take the information in this guide and use it to turn that small piece of land or those three ceramic pots into a bounty of delicious tomatoes.
“Growing Organic Tomatoes” provides a solid foundation that will help you get started on your own tomato patch; even if you are a first-time gardener.
You will learn how to:
• Select the best cultivars for your climate and your pantry
• Grow plants from seeds
• Use companions for pest control
• Tend your tomato plants
• Troubleshoot common problems
• Preserve your harvest
This guide provides everything you need to take your tomatoes from seed to sauce.
Beginning with a breakdown of the different kinds of tomatoes and ending with delicious ways to use the fruits of your labor, everything you need to know to produce a bountiful harvest of plump, juicy, organic tomatoes is between these pages.
It’s time to get your hands in the dirt and make something happen.
