Incredible number of blossoms on Blondkopfchen. Fruit set doesn't seem too amazing so far, though.

great trellising dalmatian !!!
i did some rethinking on my caging/trellising of my tomatoes
during the winter..
hope what i have set up works.. a bit like your set up.. with
twine going length of rows .
im getting good blooms too.. yea !!!
plus ive been more faithful in fertilizing this yr.. started with a
good all purpose fertilizer..but with high P and K..so im sure thats
helping with the blooming !!!
if all goes well in aug/sept..and i end up with a TON of tomatoes..
i'll let the neighbour garden helpers set up a stand and sell them..
i have 64+ plants.. its only me..and i dont can/bottle.. LOL
i just cant throw away a plant.. LOL

Mitchel, is that just in plain water, or did you add anything "fancy" to the water? How long did it take to develop those roots?

It's just filtered water using a Britta filter to remove chlorine. I add fresh water daily from about a foot above the vase to increase the oxygen levels and then poor off any excess. It took 6 days to get to this point.

I have heard about using willow in the same vase for the rooting properties it contains but don't have any.


Anyway now I know I can make free plants!

I would cut bottom two leaves and plant in something organic, plant whole stem just leave a top 2-3 cm out.
