This is how I grow tomatoes using banana peels for potassium, eggshells for calcium and pet or human hair which adds sulfur and trace minerals to the soil. **If this was helpful to you don't forget to give me a thumbs up and subscribe for more hobby farm videos. :) I started my tomato seedlings using the Praxxus55712 method. I filled plastic cups about 1/4 of the way with potting soil and planted my tomato seeds in there then as they grew I covered them up with more potting soil. The result is a very healthy tomato plant with lots of roots and a nice thick stem :) Sorry about the wind... I'm in the mid-west and it was particularly windy yesterday.

very cool I never tried that

Was that a lemon boy tomato? Nice tip, I have used Epson salt(magnesium sulfate). My peppers do much better with it. Maybe I'll give the pooch a haircut and try your method!

Very informative, I've never thought of using banana peels directly in the garden. Thank you.

That is an interesting recipe for growing tomatoes. Never heard of the hair, but if it works, it works.

Never tried that before, great tip!

You can also use your PEE for nitrogen...

nice tips thanks

since you have chickens do you use the dropings for fertilizer wont the hair take a long time to breakdown

What part does the hair play? I know what banana peels and egg shells do. Potassium and calcium.

Love the chickens, but they've been getting on my nerves lately. So hard to keep them out of stuff since they free range >.<. Thanks Dave :)

I like your gentle voice and ways. I have some chickens too. They are so easy and so rewarding, fun to watch and providing me with eggs. Keep it up!

Thank you sir! :)

Woohoo! Good job. Glad to see your tips.

I did that one year and the tomatoes really loved it! I side-dressed it, though, between rows. Also, did you get a high yield?

Very good...we put BANANNA peeling under ours as, well. Also the crushed egg shell. Ty for video

Thank you for watching and commenting! Glad you enjoyed it. Sorry it took forever to respond -.-

Indeed. Re-use, re-purpose, recycle! Thank you for watching :)

That's great! Let me know how it works out for ya. Thank you for watching :)

No thank you. I don't know where your banana has been! Besides, I prefer TACOS! I appreciate the offer nonetheless :)
