- One household ingredient will Make your tomato plants stronger and more disease resistant and produce more tomatoes per plant, better quality and more nutritious fruit. Two years ago when my video "Grow Tomatoes not Leaves" came out, one of the most popular parts of that video was this special mystery ingredient. And it isn't what most people thought.

I have to admit. I tried this method of spraying the tomato plants with aspirin as they grow and I could not believe for how long they stayed healthy and kept yielding fruits. One particular cherry tomato plant I left to grow in early Autumn ended up going all through Winter and still gave fruit by early Spring. Granted I live in the Southern hemisphere and we enjoy moderately warm weather all year long with only a few spurts of cold.
Amazing to hear that. I am in Karachi, Pakistan [spelled: Hot]. About to plant some seeds and will probably use Disprin.
Of all the gardening channels, this one is one of my favorites. The info is based on real and scientific results, not rumor, and care is taken to show product brands that I can find locally or online. Thanks!
This is awesome! When I was younger, my mom would do this with some of her houseplants and I thought she was off her rocker! Every time I talk to her about something that may be going wrong in my garden she ALWAYS says to me “have you tried aspirin?” And I roll my eyes- no mom I haven’t. Now I need to apologize to her! Thanks for the great video!
Oh yes, I always put aspirin in water for roses. And/or sugar.
i find myself doing the same thing with info my Mama shared....she is gone now so I can't tell her she was right ❤
@@kimdavenport2485 look up and scream YOU WERE CORRECT!
There is nothing like learning something on TH-cam from someone you do not know, including passed down family experience and your own mom, right?
Is any dosage okay and how much?
My Great grandmother taught me that. Works great on cut arrangements too.
Yep that’s what brought me here. People in a gardening group I belong to were recommending this video!
Hiya, I live in Christchurch, New Zealand. Your videos are the most informative and easy to follow that I have ever found.
Usually, the person doing the video, rabbits on for at least 10 mins convincing the viewers of what a great person he is before not telling you anything of any value that can be used by gardeners EVERYWHERE. Thanks so much.
Hi ya, whakatane here
Hi Bronnie - small world. I'm 20 minutes away in Rangiora. Agreed, this is a great channel.
This American in Florida wishes to be in New Zealand!
👌💯🇺🇸
Brian, your videos have given me the tools I needed to grow tomatoes...the RIGHT way!
I can’t wait for your book.
Thank you !
I have been growing tomatoes for 30 years and you always have new information! Love your channel.
Have you ever used Epsom salt? And does it make a difference?
I have used Epsom salt (magnesium) and asprin. They both work as stated in the video.
I used Asprin last summer - on my tomatoes and on following James Low, on my strawberries until they started fruiting.. then switched to foliar feed with molasses. Best strawberries ever. Tastier than the local strawberry market garden!
what is foliar feed?
and you add molasses from your kitchen?
mmmm Molasses ill take mine with some rye toast with butter yummm...
@@ExquisiteMary Essentially it means spraying the leaves (or the “foliage”) with a spray bottle.
What is the foliar feed with molasses? 😊
Nana Trish, wow thanks for the tip, I will try it! Blessings to you!
I am here because of the tomato video. I also used your trellis idea and had wonder success last year. So much so that I have expanded my number of tomato plants this year.
Love your info. I almost always have willows. I have three of them in pots. Started with cuts this spring, 🌱.
Also saw a guy in Japan use the discard water (from making alkaline water) on his vegetable garden as a fungicide. The plants also loved the ph.
Been adding 2 crushed aspirin to the hole I put the plant in for 20 years. Must be an old tip. I knew it before the internet existed. 🤣
Yes. It’s amazing people knew stuff before the internet! 😂
what does aspirin in the ground do?
@@M-L450 4:19 in the video he talks about what the aspirin does
Good stuff
@@razzle8140 I know what it does sprayed on the leaves it tricks the B lymphocytes of the Tomatoe plant to believe it is under attack by killer T cells and produce Cytotoxic endoplasma to prime its defenses and strengthern its exolymphic cell membrane.
But the comment above states they add aspirin to a hole before planting, implying this goes into the root system. why?
Though I watched it, I am not here because of that video, I am here because I was looking for great advice on growing! I have been pruning and tending my tomatoes just like you taught. Thank you.
U r correct! I am here because of your fantastic 'Grow Lots of Tomatoes... Not Leaves // Complete Growing Guide' video!!
I used epsom salt to cure tomato end rot and it worked. Aspirin sounds great, too. Thanks!😊
I would like to thank you so much for helping me understand in depth how to care for plants. I have tried growing tomatoes before and never really had much luck even after watching other videos, but your video is the only one that I have watched explaining step by step what to do for your plant and how to take care of your plant for a better growth. Needless to say I am now a subscriber, and will continue watching your videos and share them with relatives, and Friends! Thanks again for sharing!
Thank you 😊
Aspirin works great for my 🍅 and now I'm going to try it on my two pepper plants this afternoon once the sun 🌞 goes down..Thanks for this tip!
I had great success starting my own tomato seedlings indoor this year after watching your video on how to star tomato seedling, thank you!
I’m new to gardening and I came across your TH-cam channel and now I check out all of your videos! Thanx so much for all of the great info!
My first year using aspirin and it has been working great! It's been raining like crazy this spring where the plants rarely get a chance to dry off. Still they are doing fantastic. THANKS!
I’m guessing it was your tomato video that caught my attention. It is your organized, right to the point, personable delivery that has me hooked and anticipating each new lesson. I learned so much last year with the tomatoes that, even though I did get blight, I had plenty of tomatoes. And... I also had fun. I’m so looking forward to this summer. Thank you.
Right to the point?
That 85 NES t shirt is an excellent wardrobe selection.
I’ve started my experience in turning the beef stake large tomato plants upside down like the cherry tomatoes and it’s growing so much faster and I mean two feet longer than the growing from the ground and I have tomatoes already to fry up bigger than my hands already! Thanks so much for your help keep the videos on you tube!
You have some very interesting ideas and I love your approach to eching out the ability to feed yourself and your family. It has come to a time were we need to grow our own food for a number of reasons. Please keep up with all the amazing ideas and information to grow healthy, tasty food
Yes, the main reason I'm here is that video on growing tomatoes. What I learned really made a difference in what I did & the results in the garden.
I came here last year because of cucumber issues, but he’s 100% converted me to solo cup tomato methodology. I altered it to clear solo cups because it’s so advantageous being able to see the soil/root structure.
I've tried this and it really works. I also add milk to my foliar spray and it works very well as an anti-fungal agent.
Yes, I found you in my quest to grow better tomatoes but I've learned so much more since then. Keep it coming!
So you spray the aspirin solution on the leaves?
Joni I
I been watching you since October 2019 and all your tips & trick have help me so much. This is my 2nd yr sowing seeds but really my first year doing it rights. I will try the aspirin soon, thank you Brian👩🌾Happy Gardening
Great jobb Brian. It is a pleasure to learn from you. I just started gardening so I have a lot to learn:)
I knew about Aspirin many years ago, I never had a problem getting uncoated. Nice video, thanks
I went to a class last year for growing tomatoes. He said to put tums in the hole when planting to decrease bottom rot. It worked!
I’m new to gardening and stumbled across the tomato video a couple of weeks ago, love your content it’s by far the best I’ve seen for beginners to understand! Thanks
Hey thanks Matt!
I found him recently too. great info!
Been watching since about 36k, seldom comment but appreciate your direct info, sense of humor and relaxed style. I remember the aspirin tip from original video but have yet to use it, thanks for the reminder. Most years fortunately, I have little trouble will my tomatoes until the very end of the season and then usually a bit of blight that I couldn't fight off. I'll try the aspirin this year and see if it makes a difference. Your book will be terrific.
I will try aspirin
I remember watching your "Grow lots of tomatoes, not leaves" a good while back. I think that is when I sibscribed to your channel. I bought a small pice of property in the county with a small house on it so I could build a super large greenhouse on it. I love growing my own food and teaching my friends and neighbors how to grow their own food supply. I enjoy watching your videos and take a lot of notes so I can reference what I learned from watching your channel. Have a great day my friend.
I just found your site, very excited to try your techniques on my tomato plants here in North Florida, I subscribed and liked your video. Thank you very much!
Brian, you are priceless. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge in a concise detailed fashion.
I agree about not salting up the soil and balance too much. Tree bark is where aspirin originally and still is sourced from so salicylic is organic in that sense. But it is also known that neighbouring plants can use and send nutrients through messages in the fungi internet, so maybe it happens.
Great information!!! Thanks for sharing! I lose my tomato vines EVERY YEAR to blight. I am anxious to try this! 👍
I cannot remember the last time until today that I bought a bottle of aspirin and I went into the typical type of dollar store and the very first bottle was UNcoated Asprin .
I have never bought any . Must go and buy some haha
The first video of yours that I watched was the famous tomato video. Not that I’ve watched any other of your videos, but I have uncoated aspirin and Neptune’s Harvest tomato and vegetable on hand. The container tomatoes I grow this year will be using bamboo teepees. See, some of us truly listen. You are a great teacher!
Awesome! Thank you!
Truth!
Thanks for the great tip! I love your “ yarden” and your chicken house!
I already have my inflated aspirin at the ready for when it is time to plant. Thanks for the Amazon link from your other video.
I just found you this week and I am hooked on all the info. you give us. You have a way of explaining things so that it is easy to understand as well as interesting. Thank you for helping us with our garden questions. By the way, your yard is beautiful. Give us a tour sometime. I am in NC & our weather is all over the place so we have to watch the weather person closely to know if the temp. for the day is 35 or 75.
Thank you! Welcome😃
I tried the aspirin application in 2021 and my plants stayed healthier.
Thanks Brian! If I had a channel it would be called the “The Negligent Gardner” as prior to your channel I basically treated my soil with manure and compost, tilled the soil and planted all my veggies the same way. Some years were great, other years, meh... This year I have time and have taken your advice and treating my veggies individual needs. I have 700sqft all in ground and am so excited to try vertical tomato planting with trellising (ordered your hooks) have Teepees for my beans and other suggestions you’ve made. Love your channel, adding aspirin to my toolbox, keeping a journal of what I’m doing and will keep you posted!
😂 I was thinking of calling mine black thumb gardening. 😂
Good idea Brian. I've raised tomatoes all my adult life I'm 83 years old now. 3 years ago I contracted arthritis. I don't eat tomatoes, white potatoes, eggplant, bell pepper, those four plants are toxic to your body they are species of the deadly nightshade (Belladonna). It was difficult to stop eating those plants that are eating most of my life but I did and my arthritis went away. No help from the doctors medications. I doubt if you will post this but if any of your friends have arthritis it will help them by not eating those four plants and there's others.
@@charlesthompson1215 , B O R A X protocol at 1/8 teaspoon per 100 lbs of person, in a pint of water and split between 2 meals controls my arthritis. I had tried the Medical Medium Celery Juice at 1.5 doses per day, for 10 days. Took me from level 9 pain to zero on day 9 and stayed, thereafter 1 dose daily about 4 days a week. A dose is 16 oz or 1 big bunch celery juiced, on empty stomach, coffee and eat an hour later. The powdered mineral is easier. I put it in my tiny garden too. Before pest-icides we had lots in the food. Lowest country, Jamaica with 72%arth-ritis , highest is Isreal with 4%arthri-tis . Human prescription use 2 0 m u e l te am on laun-dry isle.

@@marianne3024 I have your garden’s twin!!! 🥴
Thanks for the video I am watching so many of your videos. We are doing raised beds this year, pray things grow better. Thanks for your knowledge
Thanks for the tip and for keeping the video short. I do not have time for 20 minute videos. So I usually skip them.
I'm here because of that video. I didn't really do much of what you said. I didn't see it until the season was well under way but I did use fertilizer with calcium because of your recommendation. This year, I'll get a sprayer and use the aspirin. BTW, I fully intend to watch the video again and implement more of what you recommend.
thank you for the info as always! I will save the epsom salt for soaking.
Brian, Your information is incredible. Your yard looks amazing..I do remember aspirin suggestions from my Grandmother years ago., and have been using it with great success...Thanks for the update! I stay away from epsom salts as well..Once I saw how using an epsom salt/vinegar combination to killed weeds, I decided it did not belong in the garden. Thanks for all of your incredible information, especially with links to find products so easily...
This is the first year I am doing 7 gallon grow bag garden with tomato and green peppers. Listening to your playlist and as a newbie my question is. Would I treat the grow bags as a container and fertilize as such especially with the leaching out of nutrients. I’ll be setting the grow bags on a semi hydroponic pea gravel bed to provide water. Thank you for your help.
I don’t remember which video I watched first but it could well have been the tomato video since that’s where I started my garden.
After I saw the tomato video I was hooked. I've been following the videos regularly. Thanks for all of the great tips.
You're welcome! Glad you're here!
Last year I grew gourds-- I started watering them 1-2 times a month with 2 Tablespoons of Epson Salt in a Gallon of water. They did Great! Nice, BIG leaves, & seemed to grow faster. Beautiful blooms & awesome gourds.
Hi Brian. Yes I watched your Tomatoes video and I am here because of the video😊
Thank you for all your great information!
You're welcome!
Yes, I started following you after your tomato🍅 video...& I’m staying😉
Me too
"Grow Lots of Tomatoes Not Leaves" was my path to finding you, Brian, and with you (and Cali Kim a little) my first year gardening in 2020 went pretty well!
Also, regarding epsom salts or just anything gardening related, *your* views are*my* views 😄
Lotsa love from Milwaukee, Zone 5B. Keep it up and thanks for being here for us!
Howdy fellow 5b! We are practically neighbors. Big plans for this year's garden and harvest?

No epson salt helps plant Take its nutrition from the soil..speedily!
Thank you..I feel it is necessary at this time with food shortages to start growing any and all vegetables/fruits I possibly can. In my sun room and outside.
Just gathering info from all of you pros as possible so I can lessen all possible failures. thanks again.
Yes I saw your other tomato video. I’m glad you are doing it again!
Oh my goodness, you are a Godsend! Hubby has put a box of Epsom Salts in my shed and I tell him I have used it. but honestly, I did it once, about a year ago, for a footspa. I would like to put on the record that folowing your tomato growing advice increased my tomato growth from only 6 plants, into a little business that i could sell a tomato pasta sauce into a profit.
Wow how wonderful! And yes epsom is better for a foot spa. Lol
How cool is that! A home made pasta sauce using garden-grown tomatoes would be a nice little business. And fun too!
@@NextLevelGardening!
Yes!! Epsom salts is wonderful for a foot spa! It's even moisturizing. I am grateful to Brian because I was wondering if I should throw the water from my foot bath onto the garden.
@@cynthiadavis3102use it to flush the loo & save on water! Be blessed
I think your popular tomato video was the first one I watched and I was hooked. 😉. Thanks as always for the great info and your time. See you tomorrow ❤️
I think I remember that. Thank you ❤😊
I've watched every single video. And learned so much. Watched the tomato video also. Also I share your videos with the family. Very informative. Thank you Brian
Thank Delia! I really appreciate viewers like you!
Hi Brian thanks for all your information it’s very helpful, do you have any tips on planting rubbarb crown my last one rotted.also I bought a lot of organic multi purpose compost and it is making my plants water logged what am I doing wrong.
Thanks Carol.
Great video! And very timely! I'm wondering if you used baby aspirin, since the video ~4:40 shows 4 aspirin in the hand, while you say 600 mg. I just looked and my Dollar Tree uncoated aspirin are 325 mg, so would 650 mg (2 tablets) be too much?
Wow Brian! Thanks for this one!!
Your video pointed out everything I was doing wrong in my first garden last year. I was honestly doing pretty much everything wrong. I took notes to apply your growing tips this season. Thanks and Subbed 👍🏼
Yep it was my 1st video of hours I watched. Thanks for your wisdom.
Someone may have already asked but at what age of the plants would you start? Great tip, thank you!
Finally caught your video shortly after it was posted. Very informative.
Thank you I appreciate that!
Thank you. I wil trie it. For me, Asprin is also organic.
Great on aspirin and about willow, I have one way down the front to keep it's roots away from my septic system. Thank you.
I'm doing the aspirin trick. So far lots of blooms and a few green tomatoes. We'll see how the harvest is this year. The past few years have had mixed results. The peppers advice on making it perennial by potting a mature plant intrigues me. I will try it this fall. I'm in CA too. The Central Valley so it should work well. Great videos.

I’m here bc you were recommended by my best friend!
Hi! Thank you so much for your videos they are very helpful.
Quick question. I have some tomato plants growing (they are still in cups) I have Brandywine and I notice some leaf miner are starting on the leaves. So I was going to spray them with aspirins this evening and see if I can fix the problem that it is just starting. I also have beef and cherry tomatoes in cups at the money before I transplant them into the ground. What you recommend that I should do. Should o do the aspirin method and save the other Plants before it’s too late? And how many aspirins do I need for a one gallon of water? Thank you so much!
That video is exactly how I found your channel. I watched the whole thing too!
I caught this at the end of that other video and immediately found some uncoated aspirin at the local Dollar Tree. I tried it on my over the winter tomato plants in buckets, and within a week the plants put on new blossoms. I didn't know how often it should be repeated, though, and that was about a month and a half ago. I just reapplied some more this week because some problems were beginning to happen. So, I'm waiting to see how they do. Meantime, I've applied the spray to those now in my in the ground garden, and am hoping for success. This is only our second year to plant in Florida, and last year we harvested almost nothing due to pests, animals, and heat. I am so thankful for this tip.
Hi! I'm so glad you had good results with it!
I am 74 years old and have never tried to grow any thing to eat. I have listened to most of your videos especially for growing tomatoes and am giving it a try for the first time. I am keeping notes on your videos and Sm keeping a journal of my successes. Wish me luck!
Power up your world with home grown goodies.
I'm 70 and started veggie gardening when I was 5.
In college I always had potted tomatoes on a windowsill or outside my dorm. The were never a great success but it didn't stop me from gardening.
I now have about 5000 Sq feet of veggie garden, 5 types of berries, a small orchard and enough manure stacked and composted to rival a dairy farm.
Aspirin definitely improved my tomatoes in past years and I'm going to start using it on my other nightshade this summer.
I'm happy for you....
The garden is like having a yard full of grand kids to love and care for.
Keep it green. 🍅🥦🥬🫑🍒🍏
Nows the time for one of your best ever experiences.
Who doesn't want to brag about a 2lb 9 Oz tomatoe that requires a double sized loaf of bread.
Yep, started watching you in 2020 with tomatoes! Awesome info Brian.
Your videos are great. I have learned so many things that I am implementing in my garden this year. THANK YOU!!!!!
Thank you 😊
Willow water is also a great way to root plant cuttings. Willow has a rooting hormone in it that is phenomenal. I always have a jar of water with several small Willow branches in it in my garden. If I have a cutting I want to root I simply stick the cut end into the jar with the willow and (almost always) within a few days it has roots.
Yep. And it works way better than powdered or liquid rooting hormone, in my experience. In fact I’ve found those other additives increase the chance of rot, if anything.
You can also dip the stem in to cinnimon powder as a root starter
Isn't asprin made from willow? So that would be why it works like asprin!😃
Can I use weeping willow? Or do I need to use regular old willow?
@@msgottaneedtoknow Yes. Weeping willow.
Yes, I am here because of your video!! Following your instruction, I harvested so many tomatoes that this year we are significantly decreasing our numbers of tomato plants! We couldn't GIVE enough tomatoes away and wound up canning WAYYY more tomatoes than planned! THANK YOU!!!
How many plants did you get? And which varieties? I live in Fort Worth, Texas. Only 2-3 in our household. I have 1 indeterminate Early Girl, 2 indeterminate Huskey Cherry tomatoes, 3 Atlas, 3 Bush tomatoes. All are in containers. But I already made a mistake- The Atlas and Bush tomato plants are sharing pots( The six plants are in 3 pots) I wish I knew what kind of harvest to expect if I don’t can?
Love your vids , keep up the good work, thanks for sharing - you are a garden genius
Ok. You’ve convinced me to give it a try....love your sciencey explanation!
Thank you, thank you for dispelling Epsom salts myth!
You're welcome!
Hi Brian, I live in New Orleans and this is my first year in container gardening. I have watched untold numbers of videos on container gardening and I must say, yours are the most concise and informative . I am convinced you must have a degree in horticulture. Thank you and my wife says I am now a container gardening zombie. Actually, she is enjoying it as much as me.
It's a very good preventative measure. Thank you!
This is probably my favorite tomato tip and I've been doing it for many years. (Did find you through that video but I watched a few more before I decided to subscribe). 2 -3 tbsp of garden lime fixes BER in tomatoes and peppers that are grown in pots.
great tip!
So, if I spray with aspirin, do I still need neem oil to keep off the bugs? I live in GA. We have so many bugs. I have been learning a lot from your channel, thank you so much!
We actually started following you because of the tropical videos.😁
I never heard of using aspirin before. I will be checking out where to get the uncoated variety. Thank you!
Your grow lots of tomato’s is why I started following you and subscribed to your channel
Hi Brian. I love your videos. I have some very new transplants
(1 week ago) eggplant, zucchini, tomatoes, and peppers. I found an entire half eggplant leaf chewed off this morning, and noticed a pale green to yellow ring around the edge of some of my zucchini and squash leaves. I purchased neem oil today, and snail bait, as I have been spotting trails in the morning. I have mulched the entire garden with straw when I put it in last week. Should I remove the mulch before applying the bait, and is it safe to apply neem to my new transplants?
Thank you. Btw, its an "in ground garden
Purchase organic “diamatjateous earth”- its a powder that you sprinkle on your plants. It kills the hard shell pests only. Don’t breathe it in. It’s like glass in the lungs.
Snail bait is toxic to snails, slugs, and humans. If you put snail bait on your vegetables, you just defeated the whole reason why anyone would grow their own food.
I’m so glad that I am able to find a bottle of aspirin at home. 😃
Perfect!
@@NextLevelGardening lol
@@NextLevelGardening lol like
I just threw out mine bcuz it was expired 🤣
I always like your videos because I always learn something from watching. Thanks for your dedication to teaching excellent channel
Very informative videos! What do you think of spraying with Spinosad if having/preventing insect attacks?
I’ve been watching since California Garden TV! You put out some good videos. A lot of good content and pretty entertaining too. I’ve been looking forward to your weekly videos for some time now. Thank you sir! Keep up the good work!
Lol I was wondering why the name was different after I double checked after this comment, pretty cool though
Yes the tomato video is how I found your channel!
I am here today cause of that video! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for offering the alternative of white willow bark
Or willow tea!
