Fruitful During Winter

General gardening

Winter growing is fun indeed. You can’t beat fresh tomatoes, peppers, turnips, and greens! With a little planning and care, even in the coldest months, you can create a fruitful mini-garden right in your backyard. Imagine stepping outside to harvest juicy tomatoes that burst with flavor, alongside crisp peppers, turnips, and broccoli that add healthy carbs to your winter meals. Not to mention, the greens—kale, bok choy, and Swiss chard—are not only nutritious but can also thrive in cooler temperatures, providing a continuous supply of food.

Update in Hiiros Tomatoes

Vegetable gardening

It looks like they are a hybrid because I have two distinct forms of tomatoes growing in my greenhouse. One variety features multiple small, oval-shaped tomatoes that cluster together, creating a string of fruit. In contrast, the other variety yields fewer but larger, round tomatoes. The differences in their shapes and sizes make me wonder how they will taste. Time will tell!
