Omg. Wow! You've got a beautiful garden. Your peppers look very healthy. In fact, everything looks nice and healthy.
I’m planning on planting bell peppers and tomatoes in my backyard garden. Do you mind giving me some tips?
Lastly, I know this might sound funny but before now, I didn't know carrots can be made into juice.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you. I am amazed at how well everything grows especially in the table garden. I do not mind sharing what I know. I was first time lucky with planting both tomatoes and bell peppers.
It start with great soil - I believe. I am using organic soil or normail soil enrich with good compost.
I planted from seeds for the tomatoes. I nurtured them inside until the weather and strength of the tomato plants were adequate. Not sure weather is an issue for you. In order to grow strong tomato plants the sucker should be transplanted when there are 4 or more true leaves.
Soak the roots well, then place the plant in a pot with potting mix ensuring that the lower leaves are removed and only the topmost leaves are shown. The part of the stem that is now covered will produce roots which will assist with the strength of the plant.
I water the tomato plants only at the roots - never on the plants.
When the plants start to flower and small green tomatoes appeared - I gave the plants additional food via cow manure.
I basically did the same for the peppers. The only exception is that upon transplanting - it is not necessary to remove the lower leaves etc. I did it however as the bottom most leaves were yellowing anyway.
Yes carrot makes excellent juice which can be combined with red beets, ginger, lemon, apples or oranges. Any combination is still delicious.
Wow! This is incredible. Thanks for taking your time to answer my questions. You’ve done well.
I’ll try to follow your steps and grow my own peppers and tomatoes.
Great - I hope it works for you but do not hesitate to ask during the process.
