Growing Tomatoes in a Ground-Floor Garden: A Woman Achieves Fruit Freedom and Makes Netizens Envious
The woman placed 4pots of small fruit tomatoes in the corner of her own garden - not the big tomato kind, but little fruits that burst with juice at one bite! The branches are covered with clusters of tomatoes, red like little lanterns, with at least 5.6hanging in a cluster, packed tightly together, and a reach of the hand picks half a basin!
She said she had just casually bought the seedlings at first, thinking "to test the waters," but these tomatoes were just too generous! Planted in spring, they began to bud in summer, and by autumn they entered peak fruiting season. Now the first thing she does every morning is go to the garden to look at the tomatoes, pick a few fully red ones, wash them, and they are crisp and super sweet, not sour at all, more than 10times tastier than the kind bought at the supermarket that has been sitting for a long time!
Netizens went crazy with collective envy:
"No need to buy them outside anymore"
"This yield is just too amazing"
"I finally understand the happiness of the ground floor"!
"After watching this I immediately ordered tomato seedlings, getting ready to try on the balcony, hoping I can achieve tomato freedom like this sister!"
Some netizens even did the math: supermarket small fruit tomatoes cost at least 15 yuan per jin, and the fruit from her 4pots adds up to saving several hundred yuan! The key is that what you grow yourself has no pesticides, can be eaten right after picking, and is safe to give to children as a snack.
Among the most popular mini tomato varieties in recent years, the Millennium fruit tomato definitely ranks in the top three! It is not an ordinary tomato, but a "little sugar pill" born specifically for fresh eating. One bite fills your mouth with juice, sweet and refreshing without sourness, and it is superb whether eaten as a fruit or tossed in a salad.
In appearance, the Millennium tomato is small and compact, about 2-3 cm in diameter, and turns translucent pink when ripe, like round little gems hanging in clusters on the branches, with especially high visual appeal. Moreover, its fruit-setting ability is extremely strong - a single seedling can bear hundreds of fruits, and even a potted balcony plant can fill its branches, so once you start picking you simply cannot stop.
There is no difficulty in care either, and beginners can easily hold their own. It likes light, and with enough sun exposure of 6 hours a day, the fruit will be sweeter; watering does not need to be too frequent, water only when the potting soil is dry to avoid root rot; an occasional diluted organic fertilizer is enough for it to grow vigorously. From seedling to fruiting takes about 3 months, planted in spring and ready to eat in autumn. Watching the fruit turn from green to red, then wiping it off after picking and eating it directly, is far fresher than the softened tomatoes bought at the supermarket.
Growing small tomatoes does not require a big yard; they can survive in pots. With enough light, less watering (they fear root rot), just wait for the fruit to set. The happiness of picking them and eating them directly really beats buying fruit by far!
