Have you ever found yourself with a fridge full of food that you simply can’t consume? It’s a common problem. Sometimes we end up eating out more than we expected, and perfectly good food goes to waste. But fear not, because there’s a solution that not only helps us eat better and reduce waste but also saves money.
Overripe tomatoes are often one such food item that goes bad before we can use them. But here’s a game-changing idea: why not grow your own tomatoes at home? It’s easier than you think!
The YouTube channel “The Wannabe Homesteader” has managed to grow tomatoes in just a few weeks using nothing more than a pot, some soil, and overripe tomatoes. Here are 4 simple steps to get started:
- Slice up some overripe tomatoes.
- Fill a pot with soil and place the tomato slices in it.
- Cover the slices with a little more soil and water sporadically.
- Wait 7-14 days and watch tomato plants sprout. Then, choose the biggest and most mature plants and replant them in another pot.
It’s as easy as that! You’ll be amazed at how simple and rewarding it is to grow your own tomatoes from overripe ones. Don’t worry if you’ve never considered this before; you’re definitely not alone.
