Spank your TOMATOES for bigger harvests! Plus pruning and using apple juice for setting blossoms

I'm really not into this sort of thing, but whatever floats your cork! It is an interesting video for troubleshooting your tomato issues, however. Enjoy!

Keep your tomato plants "in line" by spanking them! It helps with pollenation, stimulates growth, and keeps them from misbehaving ;) We also talk about pruni...
