That's the right attitude! You'll get through.
Additional Calcium is necessary to ensure there is not a possibility of bottom rot. Calmax as a spray or something like calcium nitrate added to the soil helps

Thanks for the tip!
There are formulations where vinegar is added to the eggshells which makes it become bioavailable. I believe the mixture needs to offgas so that the vinegar doesn't affect the plant as an acid.
@thetrinigardener why did u have a cloth bag tied around the produce?

Hey I’m growing a couple tomato plants and they’re all heirloom, can you do a video on how you save and preserve your seeds?

That video is coming! But just for reference: 1. Let the fruit ripen on the vine until almost the point of rotting. 2. Scoop out the pulp with seeds into a cup. 3. Fill the cup with just enough water to cover everything then use a spoon to swish everything around a few times. 4. Cover the cup with a napkin or paper towel and place somewhere with good airflow. Let it sit for 48-72 hours. 5. After 48-72 hours most of the pulp will be on the surface of the water so scoop that off and discard. The seeds should be to the bottom. 6. Strain the contents of the cup to get the seeds and discard any lingering bits. 7. Let the seeds dry on a paper towel for 24 hours and then they are ready to go! Hope this helps and happy seed saving!
Ok so what was those covers on the plants are they for keeping birds away and did you make them or buy them Ty

Thanks! A lot of agro shops have worm castings now. Just go in and ask them for it or vermicompost which is the same thing.
