The best garden is a well planned garden, so while you wait for spring, get ready for the best tomato harvest by taking the new online course ‘Tomato 101’. This course teaches all aspects of growing tomatoes in a home garden, at your own pace and in your own home and is taught by Dr. Joe Masabni, Vegetable Extension Specialist and Patrick Lillard, Extension Associate - Risk Management.
The course covers:
● Garden and soil preparation
● Plant selection and training
● Fertilization
● Irrigation
● Weed, disease and insect control
● General care
A short quiz at the end of each section lets you review what you learned before moving on, and at the completion of the course generates a certificate for you. The course can be accessed at http://www-horticulture.tamu.edu/extension and creating a free use account is required to participate.
So get out of the mud, take a seat by your computer and dream about those summer tomatoes while you go through Tomato 101.
