Tropical Belize POLINA tomato experiment at Taiwanese Vegetable Mission in Belize



The POLINA tomato experiment at Taiwanese Vegetable Mission at Central Farm in Belize is over. As you can see from the photo the tomatoes are about done. They are also smaller than the POLINA I get. I talked to the Chinese guy Miguel and he said he did not do anything to the vines. Consequently they were bearing 5 to 7 tomatoes per branching, or budding and thus without pruning down to 2 or 3 tomatoes per bunch, you don't get the big size, because the nutrition feeding capacity is reduced, for soil based production.
