Spring has sprung, and I have been very busy with my favorite hobby, raising tomato plants. Maybe I’m a little late for this advice, but be sure to put the plants in the hole so that the bottom leaf is at ground level. Part of the stem will be buried, and it will get roots also. This will allow the plant to get more water with less sprinkling. If they are already planted you can hill the plants to the bottom leaf. You might need extra soil to do that. If so, get a bag of fertilized soil. I have 15 tomato plants with 3 different varieties planted, and so far they are doing well.
Lots of luck,
Dr. Ray
About Me
- Doctor Broz
- I am a Doctor of Medicine and graduated from Loyola Medical School in 1943. I got married in 1945, and went into the Army in July of 1945. I had the rank of Captain when I was discharged in June 1947. Then I entered into Family Practice in Franklin Park, IL until 1981. Then I worked part time in a clinic in Woodruff, WI until 1987. With the partial loss of my hearing, I was forced into full retirement. I like to sing, and I was a member of the Lakeland Barbershop Chorus for 21 years. I also love to grow vegetables, from tomatoes to watermelon. I love the outdoors, and especially love our lake home, where I am close to nature and God. This being my 90th year, and with my large and wonderful family, I would like to introduce a new identity, "The Broz Dynasty." There are about 60 of us now, and we are still growing. Our motto is "Peace and Love."
