I AM GOING WITH A BURPEE SEEDLING STARTER. I purchased the San Marzano seeds and the Piennolo seeds. Can’t wait!

Confirmation of the wild fire smoke causing LV Tomato patches trouble this summer. Add to this rather cool nights. This week 8/9 to ~ the temps should get much higher. How are your tomatoes. Let us know. 🍅

Lehigh Valley will see high levels of smog Friday, DEP warns A smog alert is in effect for southeast PA, including the Lehigh Valley.

The key word here is ETHYLENE. Tomatoes and a great fruit (BANANAS) produce this chemical naturally. IF YOUR FULLY GROWN TOMATOES are on the vine and won’t ripen, pick them, place them in a brown bag, put the bag away from sunlight, AND ADD A BANANA. Your wonderful tomatoes will ripen within a week! Maybe 3 days.. Maybe 10 at extreme!

An early Mother’s Day cost me my Pienolos. It dipped into the high 30’s after MDay and I lost them and the basil too! We’re using MAY 15th as the first day to go into the ground from now on!

I’m ready for Mother’s Day planting! I’m looking for Zuchini seedlings. Anybody see any in Lehigh Valley? 🙄 Tomatoes: San Marzano, Piennolos, Florentine and Campari (For Mrs. Rizzetto!)
