We made 11 jars of pickled green tomatoes and 21 jars of salsa. Jars are Pint sized (≈.5 L). Unpictured is the 4 gallons (≈16L) of blanched and frozen red tomatoes that we’ll eventually turn into sauce.
This took a while. Every window in the house was fogged.
Looks great! How many pounds of fresh tomatoes was it to start? How many sq ft of land did that require?
It was close to 30 pounds, took up ≈75 square feet. Only planted 4 tomato plants
Wow that’s impressive.
edit: I thought it was 15 lbs per plant, but it’s really 7.5, which is still really good!
These are the end of year tomatoes that didn’t have a chance to ripen on plant. If OP has a decently long growing season, they probably harvested a few multiples or that. For example, bandywine tomatoes weigh in at 1-2 pounds each and one plant will produce… quite a few tomatoes.
Sauce: I grow tomatos in my garden too
It’s 7.5 lbs per plant, and no, I didn’t do anything but weed, water, and mulch.
