The Greenhouse Tomato has Overgrown.

in #homesteading7 years ago

We have this problem every year with our plants. They get to big for the area we planted them in.
This time the tomato and basil in the greenhouse grew together.DSC00916.JPG
When this happens we have to stake the tomato. This really is not that hard. Plus we had 60 tomatoes in cages this year and they did MUCH better than the 60 we did not have cages for. DSC00919.JPG This is the basil that was our main problem.DSC00920.JPG The reason our basil and tomato are so close together is they are great companion plants. the basil helps keep pests off the tomatoes.

Our basil didn't grow so well this year. Good tip on the using the basil to help keep pests off your other plants!

we planted some basil in between the main tomato rows this year and it did make a difference.
