Aspirin triggers the SARs response of tomato plants which turns on their defenses to prevent fungal diseases from taking hold. Using 325 mg of aspirin regularly improves tomato plant health and production. I also show you the basic tomato planting hole.

How long does it take to get leaves to look like your leaf compost?
The only leaves we have access to are live oak and citrus. These types of leaves take ages to break down. I use them any way only partially broken down and they still seem to help. I had heard this information before but forgotten it, I need to post it on the wall of my garden shed.
Surely you are not getting bags of plant tone for $5 at home depot.
I Actually learned this from your tutorial Some years ago. Thanks
Does it help other plants or just tomatoes?
Watered my plants yesterday with aspirin in my watering cans yesterday and saw my first blossom on one of my plants. Not bad for upstate New York,on a new to me heirloom variety.
What if you are allergic to aspirin ?
Garden’s don’t need pharma any more than humans do. Unfollowed.
Makes so much sense!
Can you use baby aspirin?
Tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers 😊
I use a post hole digger to make my planting hole
Can i do Epson salt and aspirin at same time?
How do you tell if they have a fungus? Thanks
I have a beefsteak tomato plant in a 5 gallon bucket of hydro nutrient solution and its sibling is in soil in a pot. I have the bucket under the edge of my camper roof and keep a 15w full spectrum bulb on it at night. It`s 7 or 8 feet tall and the one in soil is 2 feet tall. I have to water all my pots 4 times per day and soon they will need water ever 4 hours. This is why I`m switching to hydro. My tomato in the bucket has grown since March without additional water & nutrients.
Use 325milligrams which is one aspirin tablet.
Can you apply this while the plant is fruiting?
Haven't tried the aspirin but will this year
Does this work for powdery mildew on pumpkins and other squash? I've given up on those. I have tried everything I can find, but nothing has worked.
I looked in 2 pharmacies in Edmonton Alberta. Neither had uncoated. I bought the coated stuff. Hopefully it doesn't harm the plant.
