I think that a lot of people that tout the virtues of heirloom tomatoes are also the people who are harvesting their own seeds. The Bella Rosa is a f1 hybrid, I think, so the seeds aren't true. I've tasted great hybrid tomatoes and grow a few, just prefer to save my own seed. Maybe in a few years, the Bella Rosa will join the ranks of open pollinated and for our kids they will be heirlooms. I agree high acid tomatoes are my favorite☺

Hey, Guys! Yes, I really do love my drip tape system! Between the wheel hoe and the drip tape, my little 1050 ft garden is so much more productive. The row start valves are a must for me, especially here in Central Florida. All of my seasons overlap, so I'll have brassicas and flowering plants in the same plot that require different water or fertilizer. Drip tape saves me a lot of time and effort, and it saves my tired, old back! And let's not forget the difference it makes in weed pressure! Y'all know that weed pressure liked to run me off of gardening. Now, it's manageable, and I'm harvesting enough vegetables that I rarely buy any at the grocery store at all. Y'all reallly do help us grow our own food!

@@seedsandsanity5525 My weed pressure was ginormous! Mostly mimosa weed (chamber bitters) - Horrible stuff! Be sure and "aggravate" the soil before you put down that drip tape....Wheel-hoe it, let it sit a few days, wheel-hoe it again, let it sit, and wheel-hoe it again. This forces the weed seeds to the surface and allows them to germinate. When you wheel-hoe, you kill them off. The more you can do this before planting, the fewer seeds there will be to compete with what you plant. I've been amazed at just how well this works!

Not to be all dramatic and whatnot but drip irrigation CHANGED MY LIFE! I used to spend up to an hour each day dragging hoses and filling water buckets. The initial set-up can feel intimidating, but it is so worth the effort. Get yourself a decent timer so you can “set it and forget it”. Now I have bigger, healthier plants, I save money on my water bill, and I save hours of time each week. Winner winner chicken dinner.

Just so y'all know - Napa and Chinese cabbage are the same thing, and are the type most used for kimchi. Savoy cabbage is very different from those two. It is pretty much like regular supermarket/storage cabbage, but with frilly, wrinkly leaves. Some recipes call for a mix of Napa and Savoy to make kimchi. Those daikon radishes you used for your cover crop are sometimes used in kimchi as well. I hated to see you chopping them up and tilling them under. I pay good money for those at the Asian market! This fall I had wonderful luck with Blues Chinese cabbage, and with Melissa savoy cabbage. They both have good disease and pest resistance, and were easy to grow.

I’ve have a couple of questions about the drip tape. SURPRISE!! First question is. Going by the 5 to 8 gpm. How many feet of drip tape can you run at one time? I have 30’ rows. I’m trying to figure how many rows I can water at one time and get it done in a reasonable time. Second. My garden is on a slight slope or incline. Will the drip tape still work ok? I assume it would be better to have the water feeding from the bottom end of the hill pushing up, or would it really matter? Thanks for another good show. Keep it up fellers.
@gardeningwithhoss
@gardeningwithhoss 4 жыл бұрын
If your flow rate is 5 gpm, you can feed up to 1250 ft. of tape at a time. If your flow rate is 8 gpm, you can do 2000 ft. at a time. As long as the slope isn't more than 10 degrees, you should be fine.

You don' have to have a tank for gravity flow. It's the elevation that matters. A thirty foot section of PVC on a tee leaning up in a tree or pole works fine. When you turn on the spigot when the line gets to the right pressure the water will flow out of the top of the PVC. In order not to waste water you can add a couple of feet of clear plastic pipe to the top of the PVC, You can then see the water level and adjust the spigot accordingly. Then again, a pressure regulator is not that expensive unless it stops up.

Martha Stewart started the heirloom tomato crase over 25 years ago. I would have been out of business years ago if I'd grown the knarly, catfacey, hard corred, thin skined, split prone oddballs. I've been growing Big Beef since it was an AAS winner in 1994. Over 90% of market growers are growing it too. It has old time tomato flavor with all the disease resistance you expect from a hybrid. I don't know how it would perform down south in you all's heat.

Greetings from a new subscriber. First time commenting on KZfaq also. Beginner gardener in N. CA (Zone 8B). Awaiting arrival for 8mm drip kit purchased from Hoss Tools. Love all the info from you guys. Also have a couple questions. I have 8 rows 60' long and 20 rows 25' long next to each other. Planning to run one header line for all the rows (Header will connect in the middle of the rows). Have 6 gpm at hose bib. I will have several plants of a dozen types of veggies (ie 2-3 tomato, 2-3 pole beans, 2-3 cantaloupe). . I Have a couple questions. Since watering needs are different, is there an issue with planting 2 or 3 types of veggies on the same row? How much less water do potatoes need? I will have 1 whole row of potatoes so I will put a shut of at this row. New retiree here getting itchy to grow something. Anything!

I would try to put plants of the same family in the same row. Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant in a row. Squash, cucumbers in a row, etc. Be careful with the water on potatoes. They need some, but too much can make them rot in the soil.

I see in a lot of your videos about less water on potatoes but I don't recall how much less. I see you guys don't use drip tape on potatoes either. Why not? It seems with a shut of valve you could water the taters maybe every other watering cycle. To me, watering by hand defeats the convenience of using drip tape. I'm a newbie to drip tape so maybe my thinking is all wrong.

The pressure equalizes in the tape pretty well. It would have to be a pretty significant slope before you started to see some uneven watering. Don't quote me on this, but I think as long as the slope is smaller than 9 degrees, there's no uneven watering.

The 8 mil says it last two growing seasons and the 15 mil says it lasts 5 years. So, if I buy the 8 mil, I’m gonna have to buy new tape next spring, right? I was thinking if I bought the 15 mil it would last longer and I could reuse it. Am I thinking wrong about this? I’m about to place my order now.

The 8 mil tape is much easier to use for annuals like vegetables. The 15 mil tape is a little more rigid and works best for applications where it isn't moved. We can usually get 3-4 uses from the 8 mil before replacing it.

No doubt heirloom tomatoes are overhyped and overrated; however, there are some that will run with the hybrids on the production side. I just prefer to have a longer season picking tomatoes off indeterminate vines, and with the trellis I use, I can fit more varieties and flavor profiles of tomatoes in my limited space - black, yellow, orange, bicolor, red, purple, green, and ugly types. I see the advantages of all the crop coming on and cropping out the tomatoes to plant another crop rotation; however, I don’t see the current varieties of determinate tomatoes I have and have grown out produce or out taste the indeterminate varieties. Major caveat is that I plant indeterminate tomatoes on a very tight spacing of about a foot and prune to a single leader. So I have four plants producing tomatoes where one determinate tomato plant would grow. Is that a fair comparison on production? No, but it’s valuable work to me for the bounty and variety. Just my $0.02. Some heirloom varieties are just not suitable for my (our) zone 8b climate. Brandywine is a fantastic tomato. I usually get 3-5 tomatoes per vine. That averages to 15 tomatoes per determinate tomato unit. My favorite tomato variety is Cosmonaut Volkov right now. I would average 60+ tomatoes in the same grow space. Tycoon and Tasti-Lee would be the best determinate tomato varieties I’ve grown, and they produced 30ish tomatoes per plant but that is limited to less than 10 plants total. Indeterminate tomatoes are more work the way I grow them, but due to my land constraints, necessary for me to get the tomatoes I want to eat and give away.
