Hi there!

I happily found this forum and just subscribed. I started to grow tomatoes indoor this year. Still a beginner but learning...
I thought it would be good to subscribe here as I saw already a few fellows indoor tomato growers. Would be cool to share some experience.
This is my second attempt to have nice tomatoes. First one was ok but I had to fight blossom rot. Still fighting but I think I have the victory near me...

Thanks weezie & greyparrot!

Weather is very cold but sunny, but not as cold as last year!

I'll post a topic about blossom end rot for sure! I've investigated a lot on the net. Now I'm verifying if the cure(s) works. It is mostly the PH, I think which is 8. I put lemon juice and I chech it with a meter. I try also the bottle trick, but well. I'll make it a topic...

Welcome Fredix!

You will have the best tomatoes in the neighbourhood, once these folks get ahold of you!

hihi! Sure with your help I'll get the best tomatoes around. The few I tasted from the first batch were absolutely delicious, although too few and too small! These have nothing in common with the commercial ones.

The bottle trick is to cut a plastic bottle in half, put it upside down in the ground and pour water in. this way the plant has a continuous supply of water.
