I see a lot of questions about determinate and indeterminate tomatoes. What is the difference between the two tomato types? Which type should you choose to grow in your garden? A lot of the times when you purchase tomatoes or tomato seeds they may not even show if they are a determinate or indeterminate variety. You may need to do some additional research to figure out if your tomato variety is determinate or indeterminate.

Sugar snap peas are one of the earliest plants you can grow in your garden. They are also one of the easiest plants for new gardeners to be successful with. With sugar snap peas you get to enjoy the entire pod and the peas inside, what a delicious treat. They are fantastic to snack on while working in the garden and if you are not careful the ones you pick may never make it into the house. I often find my son out in the garden "snacking" and he usually goes for the sugar snap peas first.

Bok choy and other leafy greens are very easy to grow. If you have a space in your yard, do give them a try. You can also grow them in containers as long as they get sufficient sunlight. Now, how to harvest. Just pick the outer leaves, so they continue to grow all season long. Once you see them bolt or with flowers, then it's time to uproot the entire plant.
