recipes and tomatoes

As you all know I have started putting some recipes on the blog, if you have a great recipe to share with us please email to me (Mia) at urbangirlsproduce@gmail.com

Now lets talk tomatoes, first we want you all to know that they are growing and we have some big ones but they are still green, we are hoping they will be ready to begin harvesting after the full moon.

Second, for those of you who have Tomato plants at home, here is a tip: Do not smoke around them, and if you have had a cigarette wash your hands well with soap and water before going near your plants, if not they could develop  a disease.

Third, once they are done for the season, get rid of them, do not compost!! either dry out and burn or put them out with your other garbage/yard wasted, this is also true for your potato plants.

And finally, potatoes and tomatoes should not be in the same bed/area of your garden, these plants are in the same family and spread disease and fungus to each other...


Well, I do hope that was helpful information, stay tuned for more tips, picts and recipes!!!
