I think I have seen this one more than 10 times. Love your videos Kaye! Thanks

OOOOOH my gosh...two videos in and I'm hooked!!! Kaye you had me leaning in to my laptop, like I was going to be able to smell that sauce! Watching you taste those tomatoes... sitting there back-dropped by the plants holding that perfect tray with your stray hair falling, seeing your expressions go through the changes was powerful.. about as captivating as this stuff gets...I made all the right sounds at the right time; just wow! That was exceptional. 🍅 ✍️)))

Hey Kaye! I love how you edit and construct your videos! You are extremely advanced and professional. I feel as if I am invited in your garden!! Please do more recipe videos!!!

Girl you are making me hungry with all those home grown tomatoes. I so miss my garden this year. So busy taking care of my daughter and grandson that my garden fell by the wayside. There is always next year.

@6:41 Love the way you were picking those cherry tomatoes, nothing like a bit of strain and pain for that sweet, juicy reward!

Beautiful tomatoes I can just imagine them with a drizzle of green goddess dressing

It was great to see the tomatoes growing through the season Kaye, and actually quite reassuring to see the harvest you ended up with in spite of the blight (my outdoor tomatoes were completely wiped out). And as for the bloopers at the end - I can completely relate! Take care x

I'm 80 now and started my flowers and veggies from seed 50 years ago. Used vermiculite in half gallon milk cartons cut lengthwise so they were about 2 inches deep to sprout only. Then I plucked the sprouts easily from the verm. and planted them in any container that held my good garden soil about 4 inches deep that i baked in cooky sheets to kill weed seeds and blended with vermiculite and watered with a dilute solution of Miracle grow. I used the heat provided by our TV, which was always on, (we had 5 kids) and the top surface held 4 or 5 milk carton halves which had saran wrap on top and a magazine for darkness. Checked daily for germination cuz w/o light they'd get leggy real fast. I had 2 grow lights in the basement for the next step. I kept the lights really close to the plants and they plants were never leggy but rather squatty and thick stemmed. Northeast Montana is cold country and nights even in summer rarely get above 60 even tho the days can reach 80s and 90s. Pop and beer cardboard flats lined with plastic made good plant trays and the price was right. Hubby did cobble together a leanto greehouse on southside of the unused garage with the old storm windows when we got new windows on the farmhouse his folks had built. Used a propane heater in it when the nites were frosty. Set the plants out in June that were started in March. All this to encourage you to use what u have and have don't give up on having a garden.

My husband rolls his eyes when he hears the whistling introduction to your videos. I re-watch them so many times! I have tried or plan to try many of the varieties of tomato (and peppers) you've grown. I love your garden and would love to see the layout to see how I might maximize my space. I feel like a groupie, but I do love all the love you put into your videos (and your garden)!

Best episode ever!! (well, they all are!) Your tomatoes are to die for!!

Despite the tomato troubles you had a nice harvest. This year I tried Copper fungicide on my tomato plants and I didn't have any disease. I sprayed them once a month and had great results. Keep up the good work and happy gardening !!!

What a bountiful tomato harvest! Love the pasta sauce & your video is wonderful! Blight hit my tomatoes, mildew took the squash, my sweet potatoes & pumpkins are hanging on :)

Really great harvest, Kaye! So sorry about the blight troubles!

I love these "stories" you do about a particular crop that takes us thru the season-from seed to table. Such a treat for us viewers and such commitment from you to tell these stories.

Nice tomatoes Kaye! Looks like you did well despite the difficulties! Mother Nature is always a challenge no matter where you live! Cheers!

For an alternative and thicker sauce, roast your tomatoes, garlic, onion and herbs in the oven at a low temp for about 2 hours. Amazing!!

Wonderful Kaye!

I LOVE your videos. I have been watching for a couple years and just started my own garden!

Your videos have been a great help and inspiration for my garden this year. This is the first year I am trying starting from seed instead of greenhouse shopping.

I just found your channel yesterday, and I am LOVING it!! Everyone says tomatoes are easy for beginners, but like you I've had so many disappointments! I think this year will be better. :) I love seeing your struggles and triumphs!

“Late Bloomer” myself ... love your videos. Growing over 30 heirloom varieties of tomato this year. Wish me luck.

I love love love you and all your shows

LOVE IT! Thank you so much for the amazing report! Sweetie cherry tomatoes are like candy, one of my favorites! Amish paste looks so great!

I love watching all your videos!

Good to see you Kaye! As always your tomatoes look divine, thanks for sharing.

awesome video - tomatoes are definitely one of your specialty topics

This was so helpful ! I never seen such handsome tomatoes 😋

And the soup looking delicious wow! You're amazing

Welcome home! This video is one of your best! Even with the problems that tomatoes have, you did an excellent job in growing them. Thanks! OAG

Beautiful harvest, your videos always make me happy. I also had problems with powdery mildew but ended up having a lot of tomatoes.

I enjoyed watching your videos. You do a wonderful job.

That was a GREAT video! I had 8 varieties and 16 tomato plants total as well. I also managed to can 6 jars of Banana Peppers and have lots of tomatoes in the freezer for sauce. Shared on facebook and twitter!

It was great to get on KZfaq and see that you had a new video!

so fun and educational!

Very nice display of your tomatoes and thank you for showing how to prepare them.

Welcome back. Lovely video, this year I grew (already have a mild frost) 3 verities but from next year I am going to grow new verities that are not available here in Calgary. Already got some seeds and over the winter a few more tomato and veggie seeds are coming in.

They look wonderful !

THANK YOU KAYE

In Japan, gardening can start in March. Always enjoying beautiful videos.

Your the best ,you made my day 🍅🌞

Great video all around!

yummy tomatoes..love picking than buying if i have garden

Great job on your tomato growing season, Kaye!

I'm from the Philippines and I never know we have wild tomatoes. I love watching your videos very informative. Im also planting tomatoes kale and lettuce .

Love those 'Bloopers' too

Try crushing up 4-5 "Tums" or "Rolaids" and add them to the bottom of your planting hole when you first plant your tomatoes. The added Calcium/Magnesium helps prevent the blossom end rot.

I love your video 💞

Wish I could give this 20 thumbs up. Love this video. Now that you mentioned it, I think you're right... without leaves the tomatoes don't taste the same.

Kaye I love your videos! I finally fit my kids to try tomatoes! And only one likes it now. I absolutely love them. And easy them just like you do. :) those phillipine ones where can I find the seeds? I think my son would love it :p thanks for your awesone videos. I have learned alot. Nonnie

Adding ground eggshells in the planting hole helps to prevent blossom end rot. Try this next year!

Excellent Video my dear friend enjoyed thank you for sharing, Greetings and Blessings. Best Regard FH :-)

I see this video oh so often , your pepper video too ❣️❣️

Like, like, and like!!! Love the videos!!🍅

Finally!!! I was going to ask you when is this video coming up 😈😈. Your garden looks very very neat compared to the 5 part series look . Amish paste has now crept up my list ( and it is endless!! ). Very intrigued by the sweetie and wild cherry . Enjoyed the video Kaye 🍅🍅🍅👍.

I ❤️ your videos! 😊

Zthats cool!

Your videos makes me so happy and satisfied...love from india

Super💓 Awesome 👍 Thank U very much for growing our neglected wild cherry tomato. The technic of harvesting this tomato is , wait 'till all fruits from a cluster are all ripe 🍅 then cut the whole cluster. Thank you very much again miss Kaye for this video , I feel so honored😗😗😗😙😙💛💙💜💚❤ CHICKEN TIGHTS WITH BUTINGGAN (Bootinggun)SAUCE:( any var.can do) 4 pcs. Chicken tights (opt.) 500g Butiggan (Bootinggun) tomato(it depends on u how much you like) 3 cloves garlic mince or crushed 1 big onion sliced or diced Salt or fish sauce Pinch of black pepper PROCEDURE: Marinate the chicken only with salt for 20-30 min. Then fry them until golden brown. Remove the the fried chicken from oil. Saute garlic 'till a little bit brownish in color Then put the onion @nd pepper. If the onion starts to smell good, then you can put the butinggan tomatoes. Cook for 5 min. Then put tbe sauteed ingredients in a blender. Put the pureed ingredients back into the pan together with the fried chicken tights. Then put the salt or fish sauce for the taste and simmer for 10 mins.

Where did you get the little tomato dunking basket? I love it.

My mouth is watery watching you testing those delicious tomatoes lol...how do you grow your tomatoes so high? My tomatoes are little plants, which type of tomatoes grow that high? Thanks

Great stuff Kaye. I know what it`s like to deal with disease problems. I live in Sacramento and I planted on March 25 and had a great initital harvest but fusarium wilt eventually killed off all my tomatoes. Planted a mix of heirlooms and hybrids. Next summer I have to solarize my garden to rid the soil of disease. Gardening can be a real battle sometime, can`t it? Keep up the good work.

❤️ I dream of something like this someday...☝️🤞🏻

I had the same problems with my tomatoes this year. Mine ended up dying of end rot and blight. I only got a very small harvest. So disappointed. Trying to figure out if something's wrong with my garden bed or my watering cycle. Going to mix in some new soil and compost during the winter. I hope that will fix my problem. Hopping to have better run next year. You had so many tomatoes!! Congrats! Who do you give your tomatoes to. I have a overload of cucumbers. Thanks for the great video ❤️

always lovely video Kaye love from Philippine Farmer God bless you i wish i can have those tomatoes variety

Hi Kaye, I am going through some medical issues and stroll trying to keep up with business and family commitments so I am trying to find the energy and enthusiasm for make sauces from this years crop. I needed this type of inspiration. Do you ever freeze you tomatoes and/or ripen off green ones at end of season? I have found a banana with the green tomatoes in a paper bag works really well and really fast for the latter. My favourite large tomato is Cherokee Purple. Have you tried it? It is meaty and delicious. Also something called Juliet Roma Hybrid is an an easy and realizable small Roma. All the best Desmond

This young lady deserves her accolades

I wish to have success like this with my tomatoes. I haven't had a lot of issue with disease. Some of the things I've tried are companion planting, basil, parsley, garlic. Trimming off any leaves when they first start getting funky or buggy, and making sure to trim off any growth below 12 in. Also, spacing, allow for plenty of air flow.

I would love some of the Philippines tomatoe seeds always on the lookout for new vegs

So which one was your favorite? I think I want to try the sweetie, I love my tomatoes sweet. Also, what was that purple leaf you added at the end for the sauce. I was thinking basil but wasn't sure.. Your harvest looks wonderful kaye!

Also, try grafting your tomatoes, or buy them grafted, onto Maxifort root stock. The Maxifort root stock adds a lot of disease resistance to plants, improves vigor and yield. Johnny's and K-State university have excellent videos on grafting if you're not familiar with the process.

At the Farm, we grew a whole line of the "Indigo" tomatoes....blueberry, apple, et cetera....customers were split about 50/50 as to liking the flavor. Universally, though, when comparing the indigo tomatoes to different cherry tomatoes, folks preferred the non-indigo cherry tomatoes. We will not grow the blueberry again.

Some very nice information here. I agree with the cramped,,,looks like it needs more oxygen to flow to stop mildew and issues. Great harvest and enjoyable video,,,Thanks Marty Ware (Australian Micro Farmer) ps: Growing the Tomatoes under the leaves is regularly performed on Biodynamic farms

You are becoming to be the Tomato guru Kaye. Hahaha .What a variety.of wonderful Tomatoes. How was Italy?

I like mostly hybrids.

Beautiful Garden and tomatoes. What kind of Spray you used?

I had known info about Tomatoes are good for the heart in the food.

have you ever tried growing your own mushrooms? you should look into it.

Which tomato would you choose for paste or sauce between Amish paste , Roma and San marzano ?

I would absolutely love some seeds so of those wild tomatoes from Philippines

Hi could you please mention the name variety of the last tomato you tasted. Thank you..

Where is the tomato sauce recipe on your website I cant find it?

Kaye what did you spray on the tomato plants.

How did you like those tomato plant holders? I saw them advertised but thought they may be a bit pricey. Are they worth the money?

I love to have the size of your garden

How do you prevent blight

Hi where is the recipe from this vid. Didn't c it on your site

I through also 10 kg tomatoes for this rotten problems.

Was that Mexican Sage you put in with the tomatoes.

nice to see a filipino variety there. i'm from the philippines. would love seeds of those. for preservation purposes.

Growing ( trying to grow black krill this year .. any advice on powdery mildew and blight issues??? Had one regular get it last year... not really sure why...

How do you spell that asia wild cherry name and where can i find the seeds?ty

Hi Kaye, Farmer Bob here. Down in Zone 10, Vero Beach, SoFlo, all our summer tomatoes are a fail: Heatmasters, Phoenix, FL 91s, Cherries, all. Nothing "will set fruit below 70." I am planting again now, Nov. 12. Any recommendations? Can sure use your guidance, it's tough down here. Only thing that grows are habaneros and jalapenos. Even citrus not a real bear; pests and disease. Help!

I could never limit o maters. 😂

Epsom Salt ...magnesium sulfate ....in the planting hole !!

Hi Kaye space your tomatoplants threefeet apart.Iam going from 20 to 15 plants next year.There will be three plants in each bed.Iam making tomatocages out of pvcpipe and rebar.Each section will be 2feettall and 2 feet wide.The cages will be 8 feet tall.Each plant will have 4 feet between them,I will be able to plant something small between then.Trim off 2 feet from the bottom of the tomato.You will get better air circulation and from the spacing to.Kaye never cook sauce with the lid on.It makes acid when you lift it and water drips down.

I love tomatoes and wanted to grow my own but I live in an apartment and it looks like they take up an awful lot of space... Can I do indoor potted tomatoes or would it be a waste of time? I have lots of herbs that are doing fantastic in doors but I think tomatoes may be different.
