Thinking about growing tomatillos this season? Before you plant, watch this video and avoid the BIG mistake I made! 🌱 Tomatillos are a delicious addition to any vegetable garden, especially if you love making fresh green salsa. But did you know tomatillo plants are not self-fertile? If you only grow one tomatillo plant, you’ll end up with a lush, healthy plant… but no fruit! 😢
In this video, I share my experience of planting just one tomatillo and what went wrong. Learn why you must plant at least two tomatillo plants for successful pollination and fruit set. Whether you’re growing tomatillos from seed or buying tomatillo transplants, this simple tip will save you a lot of frustration!
If you’re planning your summer vegetable garden or dreaming of homemade tomatillo salsa verde, this is essential knowledge.

if you want to grow tomatillos for green salsa
you absolutely have to do this one step tomatillo plants are not self-fertile they’ll need at
least two plants to set fruit so don’t make my mistake and buy only one tomatillo plant
because you will have an amazing plant and no fruit and sadly there’s no quick fix for
this i either have to get another transplant or I have to grow them from seed so remember with
tomatillos two is better than one have a good day

I’m growing tomatillos this year , first time .. I’m excited and I almost forgot about needing 2 … glad I saw this !
Do you have to pollinate them or having more than 2 you don’t have to.
I am growing them in Portugal, I ended up with about 60 plants, when I saw there were too many I didn’t want to get rid of any plant so here I am with flowers in them but I don’t want to end up without fruit. Thank you ❤
Thank you for your vídeo. My tomatillo plants are deopping their flowers. Anyone knows why?
