Want to have the best tomato plants in the neighborhood? I have the secret...
Years ago I had a neighbor and his tomato plants were stunning, while mine were just ho-hum. He was a sneaky old guy, when I asked him how he grew such beautiful plants, he just smiled and was evasive. But he didn’t know who he was dealing with, I was determined to find out why he had the bushiest plants in the neighborhood. I didn’t see him fertilizing, his soil looked normal, what was his secret?
Well, one evening he wasn’t home, and just before dark, I walked through his garden. Yeah, I did, I wanted to find out what he was doing to grow such lush plants. And I discovered his secret, and since I always share everything and it’s tomato planting time, here it is.
That old fart was planting two tomato plants in each hole. It was just that simple. So then I started doing it, and my tomatoes rivaled his. I wonder if he ever figured out that I found his secret. Sometimes you have to outfox the fox, darn that old man anyway...
