Big Boy Tomato Plants Fertilized With Grass Clippings, Leaves
 ✖  |
I enjoyed the story in a recent issue (Vol. 44, No. 1) about the fellow who grows 20-ft. tall tomato plants using a lot of fertilizer and various other plant food products. I bought a house in town in 2017 and dug up a 12 by 54-ft. garden plot. All I did was put down 25 lbs. of lime and 20 lbs. of 10-10-10. The only other thing I’ve done is to mulch in leaves in the fall and to put grass clippings onto the garden plot during the summer.
Amazingly, my Big Boy tomato plants got to be 10 to 12 ft. tall and the pepper plants 6 ft. tall. I got tons of produce off them. I’m thinking the grass clippings and leaves really made the difference, but I’m not sure. My neighbors are putting their clippings on their gardens now, too. (Joel Argersinger, Toledo, Ohio)
