Can we all agree that tomatoes are disgusting?

I used to love tomatoes as one of my favorites foods, but that is because I ate some real tomatoes.

Nowadays american tomatoes are bland and lack in almost everything. Still can't go wrong with some of my other favorite tomato foods like Pizza, Salsa, Lasagna, and the list goes on.

This is a real issue. OP is too young and that's why I understand his problems with tomatoes. Tomatoes used to taste great each time I bought them. Nowadays, 9 out 10 tomatoes suck. They lost their intense taste.

Humans ruined its taste! 

Organically grown cherry tomatoes are still great though. They taste great, 10 out 10!

We grow our own tomatoes. Red, yellow, orange and black ones. I love 'em.

If you've only ever eaten shitty factory tomatoes, well... You're missing out.

How and where do you grow them? Can you grow them all year long?

 

2 weeks late? :O

Greenhouse in Sweden. We raise them during spring and harvest through july and august, depending on the weather. The greenhouse basically just enhances whatever the weather is currenty, we can't have anything there during winter. Only the grape vines (the right wall and the entire roof are covered in them) are strong enough to sit there all year around (but ofc dormant in the cold).
