How YOU Can Grow 10,000 LBS of Tomatoes Every Season!
In this video, Bootstrap Farmer examines the sizing and spacing of your indeterminate tomato crop in a hoop house. We then consider developing a custom year-round calendar to help you exponentially grow more pounds of tomatoes per plant over an extended growing season. Then, we look at individual details throughout the season to maximize harvest and sales potential. Finally, we can step back and see how the lessons learned in the video combine to produce tomatoes at our full potential. We aim to show new growers in years 1-2 how established market farmers make the most of every cubic inch of their hoop house and tomato crop. We wanted to provide a high-level view of all the tasks, methods, and pitfalls of season-long growth and crop planning that affect your farm's total income potential. ************************************ Tomato Guide pdf: https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/133... ************************************ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro 02:29 The Bell Curve of Growth 04:48 Indeterminate Hoop House Production Spacing 09:10 Pounds Per Plant / Pounds Per Season 13:12 Income Potential Per Plant 17:59 Developing a Custom Tomato Calendar 27:10 Intro to Tomato and Farming Variables 27:38 Seeds 30:54 Seed Starting / Germination 34:45 Up Potting Tomatoes 35:32 Soil Tests 39:56 Soil Prep / Weed Suppression 40:53 Transplanting 42:53 Watering 45:52 Pruning / Trellising / Leaning and Lowering 47:18 Harvest and Pruning Tools 49:00 IPM Integrated pest management 54:06 Bifurcation 55:20 Grafting 56:37 Harvest / Grading / Storage 1:00:14 Sales Channels 1:03:08 Ethylene 1:05:00 Seasonal Extension 1:06:38 Overall Review ************************************ Thanks for watching Bootstrap Farmer! ► Subscribe and hit the bell to see new videos: / @bootstrapfarmer ► Check out our Free Resources: https://www.bootstrapfarmer.com/pages... ► Watch our Market Gardening Channel: / @marketgardeningbootstrapfarmer
