Ty!!!
♥️ & Tytyty Robbie❣️
I do have a question about your squash and Zucchini s …how do you get them to give both female and male flowers & gettem to open cuz idk which sex the flowers are they just shivel up & dried on their stems during the resent rain storms 🥺😭
Thanks Robbie, looks easy to do. Love Kitty ✨🌷❤️
I've done this with all of my herbs and veggies. Love this method.
Thanks Robbie! I will freeze a bunch tomorrow. Cheers!!
so simple! Glad I saw this. We grow cherry tomatoes as fruit fly generally leaves them alone and they grow everywhere on the property! I was cooking them and putting in jars in the freezer as way too lazy to can 🙂 I have chillis galore so I'll pick them tomorrow.
Make Salsa 🥫🌶🧅🧂
My sweet mother used to cut any color bell 🫑 peppers into fairly ling strips, place them all into a good ziplock bag, then ….. fill bag 75% full of water, & place in the freezer.
Zero freezer burn, looked wonderful when using them for recipes. ❤
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Very good informaion.
Oh my Robbie, I learned something new today!
Thank You for sharing how to freeze tomatoes & peppers 🌶️. Great to know you can grow the seeds after they have been frozen.
So AWESOME! To know the "how to" from you.
Thank You Robbie!
Much love from South Africa 🌍🇿🇦❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am recovering from throat cancer and radiation has left me unable to taste anything. I have cherry tomatoes and peppers ready to harvest. They will now be frozen and used when taste buds come back. They were planted before I was diagnosed. Thank you for your info again.
Can you do that freeze beef steak tomatoes like you do with the cherry tomatoes
I'd use my handy dandy food saver
❤❤
I never even heard of freezing tomatoes. I still have a few cherry tomatoes & will try it. Robbie you are full of information/thank you for everything you do! Love all the videos!❤
The best tomatoes I got this year with the incredible heat was from a volunteer cherry tomato. Got over 10 pounds of them. Amazing for here in the Arizona desert.
My cherry tomatoes don’t get that far we eat them like fruit 😊maybe if I get more then we eat I would freez it , when tomatoes are really In cheapest ,I buy and freeze so we can use it all winter less using can 🤷🏼♀️I freeze it in the bag ! Why do you freeze it before ?you doing double work 😏
At the end of the growing season last year my neighbor told me I could have all his remaining tomatoes! I had so many so I decided to try freezing them while (romas). They held up beautifully. I made sauce in February with them and it tasted like summer!!
Those tomatoes will taste so good in the winter! I never prune my tomatoes either, except for bottom leaves touching the ground or yellowing or unhealthy looking leaves. I’ve also always frozen my extra tomatoes too. If you freeze the larger tomatoes and then run them under water while they’re still frozen, the skins will slip right off.
Thank you for sharing ! Kitty💕
And Great Idea on Freezing the cherry tomatoes! But, Please, I asked a question a while ago .
What do you use to cover your plants when you made your own (stakes and irrigation tubing) and you had a cover.
I have opossum's and tree rats that like to eat my cherry tomatoes. I would like to protect them. I
bought stakes and tubing already.
I just need to know what to put around it to protect my tomatoes. Thanks!
Freeze? LMFAO!!!!!
OMG a 2 minute video stretched out way too long!
I’m using bell peppers from my freezer from 2019! Still perfect! Jalapeño too ❤
Perfect for salsas or cooking. Even pizza 🍕
Perfect timing, thx. Just scored 5-8 lb bag of Roma tomatoes. 😄
