    And so it begins

    Well, I've done very well with my tomatoes for a lot of years. Where do you get the idea I stress them until they get leaf roll. You really have no idea what I do or how much I water my plants. I know how to plant tomatoes. My Dad taught me that 40 years ago, but I sure appreciate...

    And so it begins

    Exactly, the stressed plant is thinking survival. But plants won't produce fruit when temps get above 90*. The heat causes blossom drop. Its a thing, google it. I grow indeterminate plants, have for the past 20 years. The facts are, if the heat doesn't get them the blight will. My...

    And so it begins

    Probably the most knowledgeable tomato gardener I've ever ran across, would not water her tomatoes any more than to keep them alive. She said it stressed them, and when they got stressed they put on more fruit. She also said if ya water too much, the tomatoes will be watery and it weakens...

    Yeah, but my tomato growing season will be over by the Fourth of July. When daytime temps get over 90, the plants go through " blossom drop " and quit producing.

    I also add chunks to the firebox of my Assassin about that often, every 15 to 30 minutes.

    New Masterbuilt Gravity models coming

    On my 560, I got a better burn from wood in the ash pan by suspending on expanded metal, that was resting on a fire brick broken in half. Getting the wood up out of the ash and where more air can get around it, helped a lot. And I added wood about every 15 to 30 minutes to the ash bin. I...

    My 90 day free trial to Walmart + ended

    After almost a year of Walmart + we're very happy with it . It took us a while to learn the ins and outs but now its second nature. It is saving us money. I can't put a number on it but I'm sure its saving us more than the $100 per year cost, but probably not by much. So why have it ...

    Do briskets cook faster in a smaller smoker?

    I don't see those temps as hot and fast. HF is well over 300, actually more in the 350 and up range. 275 is the generally accepted temp for about everything.

    Do briskets cook faster in a smaller smoker?

    With two briskets on the grate, I'd think there's more radiant heat on the 36" smoker. Though, the reverse flow can get radiant heat from the cook chamber length baffle.
