You crack me up... I just found your channel this week and am loving it. Can't believe you don't have more followers. Keep it up... once people watch you they will keep coming back. You are hilarious and very informative!
You're vids are awesome, being an old-timer I used to love gardening & the art of growing each variety, plus saving their seeds .... you're a wealth of knowledge & skills! Thanks for taking me back & sharing it all with the beginners, keep it happening you'll blossom in followers....🌶️🌼✌️🤠
I love the Brandywines. Family favorite is Aunt Ruby German Green. We had Black Krim tonight. Husband kids and Grandkids loved it. I pick Mortgage Lifters tonight for family dinner this weekend. We live in Michigan. My 11 year old Grand daughter pick sweet 100's today. I think a 1/4 of them made it to the house. She ate the rest lol.
This is the first video I've seen of yours I believe. Man can I relate! Great intentions in the garden, but I have tomatoes laying on the ground right now. The plants have just folded over. As far as being scattered, messy, losing things... I can totally relate. Thanks for this video, it feels good not to be the only scattered person.
Oh and isn't life always chaos? Haha. I have 5 children. 4 are teens now and my youngest is almost double digits. You are doing amazing with your load. Stay positive. You've got this ❤
You don't' have to go through all that trouble to save seeds. I save mine by simply taking them out of the ripe tomato and placing them on a paper towel. Then I let them dry there before storing them in a shoe box (they stick to the paper towel when they are dry). I also write the name of the variety on the paper towel. Then next season I simply take off the ones I need and sow them! Not only do they germinate at exactly the same speed as the other seeds, but the seedlings actually look stronger and healthier (and I suspect it's because they have extra "fertiliser" because of the dried gel around the seed. This is how they germinate in nature. So I just replicate that. No need for elaborate fermentation. Try it!
Just subscribed, only came across your channel whilst watching similar videos.. already a big fan, what your doing is amazing, wish I had your life style, from UK ❤
Thank you for a great video. New-ish subscriber here. I love tomatoes. Thanks for all the varieties. If you get more time I would love to see the other varieties. I have to plant that pink jazz and orange jazz they are so pretty. One that is similar that I have planted with the pretty stripes is called vintage wine. And delicious flavor too. I have lots of tomato videos on my channel also. I'm obsessed over tomatoes. Love your videos and your channel. Also your hair is gorgeous.
I need to try orange jazz bc I liked pink jazz so much! I have planted vintage wine before but it cracked awfully bad at my place...might try again though bc it really is beautiful!
Thanks for your Tomato variety tour. I love toms and pickles. Onions are fun. I play with okra. My #1 to always grow, or only grow, is mortgage lifter. RELIABLE, never ending, fruits are good. #2, Brandy wines. Delicious. #3 is Burpee Madame Maremades. Some French variety. Silky insides. My #1 on most delicious tomato. Medium to extra large on size. Beefsteak type. I go for meaty, low voids/seed pockets, FLAVOR.
Great video. There is a reason some of us grow the orange and yellow toms. We have acid reflux, and the orange and yellow have less acid. I am guessing less acid would give a milder taste. I want to try growing white variety because I was told really low in acid.
When I was in college we were taught to remove the germination inhibitor on the tomato seeds by gently rubbing them on a screen and rinsing. Your method is great if you don't have much time or a lot of seeds. Thank you for the extremely in depth tour of your tomato varieties. I used to eat a lot more of them before I started reducing my oxalate intake. Cherry tomatoes have the least amount so they are my go-to tomato now.
@honeytrailfarm Hahahahaha! You are just as scatter-brained as I have been my whole life! LOL, hahaha. That story of your picking up "organized chaos" and losing things is absolutely funny because I thought I was the only one. By chance, you're not an Aries? LOL. Your video on tomatoes is amazing, as are all of your gardening videos. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge and, most importantly, your passion for absolutely everything you do. Reminds me of my grandparents and their love of growing, harvesting, preserving. My goal and eventual plan is for my wife and to do something similar but on a smaller scale in the foothills of NC. Please continue to produce great videos like this one. Thank you.
I like to put my seeds rite out of the tomato onto paper towels, let them dry then label them. so next year i can pull them off ...no worries if paper is stuck to them and start them in the green house.
You know I've done this for a long time and it seems to work and it's super easy I don't know why but it works for me I always take my tomato seeds wash them off under a sink through a strainer and then I'll plop them down on a white piece of paper and let them dry and write on the paper what they are and put them in a big envelope and when you get ready to plant them, just pop one off, put it in the dirt , and I don't know why, but it works, . I just thought I would share that with you 😊
I’m dying to have the Persimmon and the Black Sea Man. Everyone from the north always asks me John, what is this tomato sandwich you talk about, lol! You are a very unique, interesting, funny lady. You make me die laughing, I could watch your humor all day, so funny you are. Anyway, so I make them the famous tomato sandwich. But i put the Farm Cheese, Honey Smoked Bacon, with Alfalfa Spouts, lettuce and some homemade Mayo. So I’m new to your channel. My Grandma always had fresh garden grown tomatoes with Mayo on the table and of course the sliced tomatoes were all eaten. But she made a killer Mayo, my question is, have you ever made the famous sandwich, with fried squash bloom, for the extra crispy crunch with the famous sandwich. What is or do you have an advanced fresh herb Mayo you make? I know you have secrete recipe to share with the wholes world, lol! I know country tomato girl when I see one. Reveal the recipe. You Most Share Your Hidden Secretes To The Whole World Now, 🙏😇! Please Do This One Thing Of All Your Knowledge. I Have To Know These Thing You Hide??? Do you make your own bacon too as well? No really, we have the original, of all the famous smoke house in all the worlds. The thing is still standing after all these years, we played in the top attic when I was a kid and would smell like sugar and salt cured ham. I really miss the aroma of it being smoked. Dad is ninety one young. You would absolutely love to listen to him talk about all these things. Plus he has a degree in Entomology from Clemson. He could tell you all the secrete you need! He can walk and find more Insects, to have more or less of, In five feet. I Love Tomatoes! Please don’t stop, you are so funny, even my X loves the almighty Tomato Sandwich now. She is from WV and didn’t know what this was. Grandma would make the best vegetable soup from all the splitters to have vegetable soup in the winter months. She put whatever she had in them really but is good and I like okra, corn and running beans in hers or what ever she had. I still love boiled Okra, so good.
In a jar put fresh seeds and fill half full of water and close lid and give it a 20 second shaking. Three or a few hours later shake again and repeat several hours later.Then next day early shake well then 1 minutes you gently pour out the water and any seeds floating.Any clean and healthy seeds will be in the bottom 5 percent of the water pour the bottom water and seeds into a fine strainer. Finally get a well sanded board and spread seeds and separate as they will stick together and harder to separate after drying.They should dry in half the time and easier to remove from wood then any paper system as most people do. Use the wood board once and tell others. Our favorite slicer based on being tasty or at the tasty near top and productive and start early season.The choice tomato that is going to be 90 percent of my slicers is Black Krim. . Midnight Snack is our favorite salad and it's almost everyone's favorite and neighbors will come asking. Question? Just what is your favorite salsa tomato please base on flavor and also productive as space is limited in our garden . Thornburg terracotta is definitely my favorite in salad Thanks Thanks
I was enjoying the video until you started with the "i love the big ones" stuff. The small ones fit in the jar just fine! Im newer to gardening so i'll definitely bw following.
You managed to take a tedious boring only performed by the smart die-hards, Your warm welcoming gentle humor has my calendar marked for seed harvest days starting in a few weeks time, Thank you for an entertaining video which had you displaying your love for the fruit of the GODS and kept it from getting too stuffy and boring.
I’m sure someone has already said this but Abe Lincoln 1923 is the older and larger tomato. I think they came out with another Abe Lincoln in or around the late 70s.
It's very interesting to hear that you are having the same problem with the seed companies mixing up seed varieties. I have a total grab bag this year. I will save seeds from the good ones. I just found your channel. It is fantastic. Thank you for making such great videos!
I'm just curious have you ever grown white tomatoes I've grown them in the past and they seem to be a very mild tomato I like them though I'm just curious. I'm enjoying your videos on tomatoes keep up the good work😊
awwe just discovered your channel today hit subscribe immediately and notifications ! Went hunting for the tomato canning video. Am I missing it, would love to see how you can your beautiful harvests.
We live in Indiana to. And my wife and I grow lots of tomato varieties also. I love experimenting with unknown varieties. Love your channel, keep em coming.😊
Thank you for this information. I am a paste gal as I like my canning tomatoes and sun golds but if I had more space I’d definitely want to try some of these. Sadly my back yard is tiny.
There's two different strains of Abe Lincoln. The original is better tasting and larger which is the 1923. I got my seeds from Baker Creek and it is my favorite red tomato and tastes way better than the newer strain which I have grown. Romeo is a huge great paste tomato.
So my analysis of your videos: You are drop dead beautiful. Your eyes are so full of life and you are what I call natural at the gab. What I have learned is that if you like tomatoes, eat a lot of different varieties, you become very beautiful and slightly untidy. Hey... I'm okay with that. Love your channel so I subscribed. Learned a lot.
I love beautiful, intelligent gardeners, especially ones with adorable, subtle, southern accents. Did I already say beautiful? 😘 Green eyes, olive skin, brunette locks... ponytails? I'm smitten. You've got a new fan in central NY. You actually remind me of a young Terri Garr, one of my favorite actors: Black Stallion, Young Frankenstein, Close Encounters, etc.
How do you only have 3000 subscribers?? Your channel will be big. Don’t ever give up!!
Cherokee Purple is my favorite so far and they do well in my climate zone.
Thats a good one! Try black beauty, white tomisol, mortgage lifter. I went from 15 varieties to 5or6 and these made the cut. With cherokee purples.
You crack me up... I just found your channel this week and am loving it. Can't believe you don't have more followers. Keep it up... once people watch you they will keep coming back. You are hilarious and very informative!
I love this girl she is such a cutie
You’re so blessed to have 2 ponie tails my wife has cancer and misses her hair.
Get her on some Fenbendazole, Apricot Seeds, and Chaga Mushroom tea ASAP

Good content, I appreciate your tips and insight. I love your hair, and you are gorgeous. Ok bye.
Hi, I seed save whatever I can, and I'm in zone 5b. I grafted some Sungold to Maxiforte root stock. I don't think they taste the same.
When you said you were an organized chaos kind of girl, I subscribed right then. I'm a kindred spirit. 🙃
I was enjoying the video until you started with the "i love the big ones" stuff. The small ones fit in the jar just fine! Im newer to gardening so i'll definitely bw following.
Wow. You are one of the prettiest females i have ever seen .. no joke
Do you know the lord JESUS CHRIST baby doll.

Have you ever tried German Johnson tomatoes it’s a heirloom variety that is a staple in my state of North Carolina ???
yes I have that one! it just started to rain before I made it through all of my tomatoes! lol didn't know it was from North Carolina though, fun!
We are always our own worst critic when it comes to looks. Be confident and keep your face pointed towards the camera 👌
Tomatoes aren't suppose to taste tropical they're suppose to taste like a tomatoe😊
Aren’t some new zebras blushing red? I read that somewhere and I feel like mine are.
Just found your channel and I am already obsessed!
Can confirm, if you dont label the jars of seeds you forget!
Pink Jazz, That's a tomato! Orange Jazz is one of my favorites
A sharpie, which contains xylene on a natural tomato? That is a no for me.
Looks like you have a place where there are lots of deer? How do you keep them out of the garden?
I wish it was Mississippi Love Apple, but it’s Missouri Love Apple. :)

I got seeds on my potatoes. Look just like little tomatoes
yes once in a while they will flower and set seeds, but don't eat them! they are poisonous
What’s your recommendation on tomato that’s close to Brandywine flavor but produces more????
Try Brandy Boy
Jersey Boy from what i researched is Rutgers and Brandywine mix.
I'm going to grow them next year if i can find the seeds somewhere.
I like Watermelon! its a big tomato that produces all season!
