Tomato care tips, when to fertilize brussel sprouts, blackberry bush and feeding chickens.

Today we're talking tomato care and some of the common mistakes gardeners make when growing tomatoes. I share my approach to pruning, fertilizing, and the differences between growing tomatoes as a single stem versus letting them grow inside a cage. We also take a quick look at the beautiful hydrangeas that are putting on a show right now and check in on the cream-colored rose we planted inside the garden. The growth and blooms have been exciting to watch develop throughout the season. Next, it's time to feed the Brussels sprouts just as they're beginning to form their sprouts, an important stage for producing a good harvest later in the season. We also add a Triple Crown blackberry to the garden and finish the day by feeding the chickens. Thanks for joining me in the garden!
