When I was in Stockholm earlier this year, I walked by a flower shop and saw him selling some tomato plants in bad shape, on my last day of visit, I bought one of them for 50Kkr, wrapped it in paper and plastic and send it in with my checked in bag.


The plant didn't do well, bit I got a few cocktail tomatoes from it and saved the seeds.

About w months ago, I planted some of the seeds and they germinated well and now it's full of #tomatoes.

Today, I picked one and going to save its seeds for future. It is mini plant that doesn't get bigger than about 1m tall. But it produces a lot of ping pong size tomatoes. It's definitely one of my plants I will grow every year from now on.

Tonight's harvest from the balcony and indoor hydroponic


Went out to clean up the balcony and found that the yellow cherry tomato plant from last year is still full of flowers and had a lot of #tomatoes on the branches and some on the ground.

Picked a few #peppers from the indoor hydroponic as well because it's time to trim it a bit because it's getting too big for the little space I have.

I will see if I can propagate the plant and make a few extra plants out of it.

How to #decolonize your #Thanksgiving dinner in observance of #NationalDayofMourning

Meredith Clark
Wed, November 22, 2023

"Thanksgiving is almost upon us, a time when many #Americans gather together to eat turkey and talk about what they’re most thankful for. Growing up in the #UnitedStates, almost everyone can recall the 'First Thanksgiving' story they were told in elementary school: how the local #Wampanoag #NativeAmericans sat down with the #pilgrims of #Plymouth Colony in 1621, in what is now present-day #Massachusetts, for a celebratory feast.

"However, this story is far from the truth - which is why many people opt out of celebrating the controversial holiday.

"For many #Indigenous communities throughout the US, Thanksgiving remains a National Day of Mourning - a reminder of the devastating #genocide and #displacement that occurred at the hands of European #colonisers following their arrival in the Americas.

"Every year since 1970, #IndigenousPeople and their allies have even gathered near #PlymouthRock to commemorate a National #DayOfMourning on the day of Thanksgiving. 'Thanksgiving Day is a reminder of the genocide of millions of Native people, the theft of Native lands, and the erasure of Native cultures,' states the official website for the United American Indians of New England. 'Participants in National Day of Mourning honour Indigenous #ancestors and Native resilience. It is a day of #remembrance and #spiritual connection, as well as a #protest against the #racism and #oppression that Indigenous people continue to experience #worldwide.'

"This year, the 54th annual National Day of Mourning takes place on 23 November - the same day as Thanksgiving. While not everyone can support the event in person, there are still many ways people can raise awareness toward issues affecting Indigenous communities from wherever they are - by '#decolonising' their Thanksgiving dinner.

"#Decolonisation can be defined as the active resistance against #settlerColonialism and a shifting of power towards Indigenous sovereignty. Of course, it’s difficult to define decolonisation without putting it into practice, writes Eve Tuck and K Wayne Yang in their essay, #Decolonization Is Not a Metaphor. Rather, one of the most radical and necessary moves toward decolonisation requires imagining and enacting a future for Indigenous peoples - a future based on terms of their own making.

"Matt Hooley is an assistant professor in the department of Native American and Indigenous Studies at Dartmouth College, where he teaches about US colonial powers and Indigenous cultural production. 'Decolonisation is a beautiful and difficult political horizon that should guide our actions everyday, including during holidays like Thanksgiving,' he tells The Independent. 'Of course, Thanksgiving is a particularly relevant holiday to think about decolonisation because the way many people celebrate it involves connecting ‘the family’ to a colonial myth in which colonialism is inaccurately imagined as a peaceful event in the past.'

"By decolonising our Thanksgiving, we can celebrate the holiday with new traditions that honour a future in which Indigenous people are celebrated. This year, we can start by understanding the real history behind Thanksgiving as told by actual Indigenous communities.

"While Americans mainly dedicate one day a year to give thanks, Indigenous communities express gratitude every day with the #Haudenosaunee Thanksgiving Address - often called: 'The words that come before all else.' The Haudenosaunee Thanksgiving Address is the central prayer and invocation for the #HaudenosauneeConfederacy, which comprises the #SixNations - #Mohawk, #Oneida, #Onondaga, #Cayuga, #Seneca, and #Tuscarora. When one recites the Thanksgiving Address, they’re giving thanks for all life and the natural world around them.

"According to Hooley, one of the most straightforward actions people can take to decolonise their Thanksgiving includes supporting Indigenous land acknowledgments and land back movements. #LandBack is an ongoing Indigenous-led movement which seeks to return ancestral lands to Indigenous people and the recognition of Indigenous #sovereignty. While the movement is nowhere near new, it received international attention in 2016 during protests against the #DakotaAccesSPipeline - which continues to disrupt land and #water sources belonging to the #StandingRockSioux Tribe.

"This year, sit down with family and friends to discuss an action plan and highlight the concrete steps you plan on taking to support Indigenous communities. 'Another, even simpler way would be to begin participating in what’s called a ‘Voluntary Land Tax,’ whereby non-Indigenous people contribute a recurring tax to the tribal communities whose land you occupy,' said Hooley.

"Food is perhaps the most important part of the Thanksgiving holiday, with turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes taking center stage. However, there are many ways we can make sure our dinner tables honour Indigenous futurisms too. Donald A Grinde, Jr is a professor emeritus in the department of Africana and American Studies at the University at Buffalo. Grinde - who is a member of the #YamasseeNation - tells The Independent that crops such as #corn, #beans, #squash, #tomatoes, and #potatoes are central to #IndigenousHistory and future.

"'A good thing is to be thankful for the abundance in the fall and note that Native people created over 60 percent of modern #agricultural #crops,' he said. 'People can be thankful for the crops that Native people created, #medicines created, and traditions about #democracy, #WomensRights and #environmental rights.'

"Rather than buying food from major corporations this year, Hooly also recommended people consciously source their Thanksgiving dinner from Indigenous producers. 'Industrial agriculture is one of the most devastating contributors to the destruction of land and water everywhere, including on Indigenous land,' he said. 'Instead of buying food grown or made by colonial corporations, people could buy their food from Indigenous producers, or even simply make a greater effort to buy locally grown food or not to buy meat harvested from industrial farms.'

"Thanksgiving is just a day away. While it’s important that we’re actively working toward highlighting Indigenous communities on this special holiday, decolonisation efforts are something that should be done year-round.

"'People can also learn about political priorities of the Indigenous communities near them and support those priorities by speaking to their representatives, participating in a protest, or by making sure that their local school and library boards are including Indigenous texts in local community education,' Hooley said."

It's the first time growing it in Kratky Hydroponic and it seems really successful.

Have to build a trellis for it to stay up and strong so I can get more fruits.

Examining the toxins in the common tomato

Regardless of how one says "tomato," they all contain tomatine, a toxin in the plant's green fruit, leaves, and roots. Tomatoes produce the bitter-tasting compound—a major plant-specialized metabolite secreted from the roots—to defend against pathogens and foragers.

I seem to have gone a bit wild on tomatoes this year*. I've got a beefsteak and a gross lisse as well as a bunch of currant/cherry size and they're already starting to ripen. So good, and so far none have made it inside (I ate them while watering the garden).

According to both the Elders I met the other day and the Bureau of Meteorology, it's going to be a long hot dry summer, so with some careful watering, I am looking forward to a lot more tomato snacking!

Tomato plants in the backyard are acting like it is spring. Now I have to decide if I want to trim back all the old growth and keep them going into 2024 or not (i.e. will we actually have frost this year, or will we skip winter?

So I really want to grow tomatoes hydroponically indoors and I really want to try it with the Kratky method (no pumps, no aerators).

Problem is, you would need to provide the full amount of water needed and tomatoes take a lot of water, 50 to 80 gallons, depending.

I'm not going to have a 50 gallon water drum just to grow a single tomato plants. It takes up too much space AND its heavy (and can break things).

So I'm going to try a 5-gallon grow bucket, with a separate 5-gallon reservoir that is situated above the grow bucket. I'll connect the two with a tube so the water from the reservoir is gravity-fed into the grow bucket. I'll use a passive float-valve to ensure the grow bucket always maintains 2.5 gallons of water in it.

That should work right?

Here is some research on it: https://kratky.weebly.com/bigger-plants.html

I'm going to go grab a couple $3 5-gallon buckets from firehouse subs and get some of the other gear. I'll update this thread as I build it out.

Picked 2.7kg of plum tomatoes today for making sauce, from our very own Yorkshire tomato plantation (2 plants in a greenhouse on a hill in Huddersfield).

The result admittedly isn't a huge amount of sauce but it's delicious and I'm stoked. Perhaps hard to justify greenhouse space for them, so will try some outdoors next year.

My work also grows this same tomato but they had a year of crop failure of ALL their super rare tomatoes and the current greenhouse supervisor was very whatever about the whole thing and I am NOT. I actually went a bought a bunch of the plants myself and distributed them to try to get enough going on that there'd be plenty of seed but honestly I don't know if anyone else even bothered. The other super rare tomatoes are just gone now, hopefully the local families who donated them still have them going on, otherwise they're extinct, and those genetics are just completely gone. #tomatoes

I feel like I committed a crime: had so many tomatoes on the table, can't eat or give away fast enough, can't go to food bank today, can't make sauce today, more on the way tomorrow, and the fruit flies were too numerous so I (shutters to think about this) bagged them and put into the fridge. #gardening #tomatoes #gyo #GrowFoodFromSeed #GiveFoodToOthers #DonateFood #FoodBanks

#today we just ended our cornfest 2023. Our total ears of #sweetcorn brought to the table from the #garden this season was 197. This is not bad but our third planting ended up a little disappointing because I did not manage to feed the last row of corn enough for a variety of reasons, but lesson is learned for next year! (If I count the 4 ears the squirrels stole we grew 201 ears) Oh, yes, we also have several tons of #tomatoes (lost count)

Tomatoes!

Some of these were grown in the greenhouse and some outside against a West facing wall.

They've all been grown from seeds we've saved but were originally from supermarket tomatoes.

My favourites are the dark red ones. I think these were originally a herritage green tiger tomato from Morrisons supermarket. They used to be pretty tasteless and remained quite green. They've turned into one of the tastiest tomatoes, quite sweet.

#garden small and large #tomatoes, and my first (and maybe only) #pepper. The squirrels and rabbits have been unusually fond of the pepper plants this year.
