Tomato bush on the right. Almost no input but some pruning like I mentioned. The top of the arch is about 8 feet off the ground, there are probably 50 plants corralled in with stakes and rope. Pic taken November 4 in New Hampshire. I don’t think density is a problem unless you can’t effectively harvest or have a pest issue.

I grow mine outside but super dense. Cut the larger forks off the bottom foot or so, thin some areas to reach in and harvest. Also cut stuff that’s tangling other plants and too dense to reach in if needed. For us in NH outside this gets me into Novembe, only the fruit on the outside will hurt from a light frost.

Couldn’t upload video last week but I got the welder done. Pulled a pulser unit from a Syncrowave 300 and installed into my 500. The welder case pulses and shakes like crazy when I crank the power up! #tigweld #diyhack #fabrication #grownostr https://nostr.build/av/3d39fd7e33047341a7d43b774c8ad77a926da7fcc764de6fa9c9ff7d16121aab.mov

Spring clean up with the old man. Cleaned up some downed trees and hauled some wood up from the back of the property. #homesteading #newhampshire #grownostr https://nostr.build/av/7248ab41aa804e85f3b99e68d90aab998f84b073155f35cd3e3236836d94829f.mov

Picked up a couple more old TIG welders this week. I’m tearing one down to steal some stuff for my machine and getting the other up and welding. Fired up today but having some issues, bad relay on the circuit card on both machines. Thankfully these are all repairable parts, I made the same fix on my machine in 2009 and took good notes. #tigwelding #diy #grownostr https://nostr.build/av/51212fff2be67cfc0ada8d70639d015863be38e3aed0967e91fb93d20134ff96.mov

Hopefully the last time the wood stove runs this year. The draft is pretty good today. #newhampshire #woodstove #grownostr https://nostr.build/av/f1f0e2d71d258112c1c86946b578fe79ff167608f2c22dd830e1254741093398.mov

Got shit done all day, time to relax with a home brewed cider from our cellar. #homesteading #homebrew #grownostr
