WHITE dandelions!

On a whim I ordered "white" dandelion seeds last year. I love trying something new and different in the garden (mostly to be disappointed later), but LOOK! This time I was NOT disappointed. So excited! There really is such thing as a WHITE DANDELION!

Just when I thought that the broccoli was done producing for the season, I walked into the greenhouse and was pleasantly surprised! This is going to go great with our Thanksgiving dinner!

The perfect time to pick tomatoes is probably not when you thought.

Stage IV in the illustration is the breaker stage and is the ideal time to pick your homegrown tomatoes.

So, when does the breaker stage occur? Surprisingly, it’s well before the tomato is completely ripe. Tomatoes ripen from the inside out, meaning that unripe tomato is far more ripe than it appears. In general, once the plant looks to be about 50% ripe (when it starts to get an overall pinkish hue), it’s hit the breaker stage. The tomato has taken everything it needs from the plant and starts to seal itself off from the vine. It will continue ripening even once you remove it from the plant.

$1.00 each! 30 plants left! These tomato plants need a garden or planter ASAP! They are outgrowing their pots and are not happy living in the greenhouse anymore. I started these from seeds and had 100% germination! They have lost their plant tags. I planted a variety of types, everything from cherry, to Roma, to beefsteak, etc.
