When To Harvest Tomatillos?

It's time to harvest more tomatillos, and my last garden guests wanted to know more about when to harvest them. So in this video, I share my tips for harvesting, what to look for in a ripe tomatillo, and even how to 'transplant' accidental breakage.

Three Tomatillo Growing Tips Tip #1: Understand Your Plant Tomatillos are part of the nightshade family and they love heat. Plant them in the early spring after the danger of frost has passed, in a location that gets full sun. They also require a long growing season, so patience is key! Tip #2: Good Soil & Watering Tomatillos prefer well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter. While they are relatively drought-tolerant, regular watering (especially during dry spells) will help them thrive. Don't overwater, as this could lead to root rot. Tip #3: Pest & Disease Control Watch out for pests like aphids and the tomato hornworm. Employ natural pest control methods like introducing beneficial insects, using insecticidal soaps, or manually removing larger pests. Plant rotation and good airflow can also help prevent fungal diseases. These are just some of the tips that can help your tomatillo plants flourish. Remember, observation is key in gardening. Regularly check on your plants and adapt to their needs for a bountiful harvest. Happy Gardening! Want to make salsa verde? Here's a recipe that yields around 2 cups (approximately equivalent to a pint jar); you'd typically need around 1 to 1.5 pounds of tomatillos. This is roughly equivalent to 10-12 medium-sized tomatillos. Ingredients: 1-1.5 pounds tomatillos 1 white onion, quartered (white onions will give your salsa a sharper flavor, but if you don't have white, yellow will do in a pinch) 1-2 jalapenos, stems removed 2 cloves garlic 1 handful of fresh cilantro Salt and pepper to taste Juice of 1 lime Instructions: 1. Remove husks from the tomatillos and rinse them well. 2. Place tomatillos, quartered onion, jalapenos, and garlic on a baking sheet. Broil them in the oven until they're charred, about 7 minutes. 3. Let them cool slightly, then add them to a blender or food processor along with cilantro, salt, pepper, and lime juice. 4. Pulse until you reach your desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. 5. Let it cool completely before transferring to a jar. Remember, it's always best to have a few extra tomatillos on hand in case some are not ripe or flavorful enough. You can also adjust the quantity based on your personal taste and how thick you prefer your salsa.
