I would use sardines also great for tomatoes is 'a whole egg and a banana' i use a drip irrigation with coconut fibers with no soil AND
I use an areoponic dystem. To propergate i use fogponics. Do you buy determinate or indeterminate tomatoes??

Where Can I Get Fish Heads?

Try the ocean?????

Perhaps Luca Brasi could help:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

tomatoes like egg shells added to the soil. Crush and put in soil under the plant. I did this for several seasons. along with tomato fertilizer and grew tomatoes that needed 6 ft stakes to hold them up. Lots of grape tomatoes and Big Boys.

The tomato plants are determinate. I would prefer the indeterminate variety so as not to have fruit all at once, but I was taken with the claim that these are heat tolerant. They are called Summer Set and are supposed to yield 8-10-oz tomatoes.


Thanks for the suggestions.

:a040::a040:How about going fishing, catching fish, eating them, and save the heads after you finish. Duhrrrrr! Buy then, the tomatoes, not fish heads, at the Farmers Market. Great produce for Florida. A lot less work.

When I grew great tomatoes in PA, I used fish emulsion. Ortho use to sell it. My mother’s Italian neighbor, kept a 5 gallon plastic tub of water and a few fish heads, by his garden. He would constantly add a fish head and keep it full of water. He had the best darn tomatoes we ever ate.

I've had the same experience....even tried those 'high heat' tomatoes one year....it's just too hot in the summer IMHO for growing tomatoes outside in TV

I plant a crop in September (in pots) and another crop in January.

what tomato variety are you using .. I have had zero luck with the Bonnie Grape (Tami G) variety ... also the Bonnie Zucchini would not pollinate - the flowers were so ‘delicate’ that they would off the plant in the wind !! Any suggestions appreciated !!

I see you have a picture of a handsome doggie by your name sooooooo, if you let anybody talk you into using fish emulsion, be careful where you leave it.

I once used fish emulsion on my flowers. Once. Just once. I turned my back on the plastic bottle while I was working in my yard — accompanied by my dog, Mandy.

Before I realized it, Mandy had bitten the bottle open and rolled around in the stinky stuff. She was so proud.

I read that what stinks to us is like perfume to dogs. She was so happy with her version of Chanel.

I think we had an easier time getting rid of the stink after Mandy’s encounter with a skunk.

Just wondering here. Possibly buy a bag of bait shrimp. I'd think 4 to 6 would be equivalent to a moderately sized fish head and bait shrimp is stupid cheap and easy to acquire.

I could be off base here, but why couldn't you just buy a cheap fish? Why does it need to be the head?

come on folks....read the thread...ya don't wanna put any fish heads, shrimp or fish entrails in the ground down here, the darn
critters will dig it all up.

those of you that don't garden, don't understand how much those of us that always did continue to want to...go enjoy yourselves and buy to your hearts content at the farmers market...ya can take the backyard farmer out of the garden, but ya can't take the garden out of the backyard farmer
