Time spent harvesting tomatoes for market

AKmark · July 30, 2015

I refuse to take the time to pick cherries, and my time does count too. I try to utilize it in areas that provide the greatest potential. everything else is secondary, and evolves around the main production crop. In my case that is beefsteaks, the pounds pile up very fast, and I cannot grow enough. I don't waste time pursuing crops that barely matter when the bucks are counted, labor time calculated in, fertilizer costs, electrical and heat too, I had better be getting some poundage to stay afloat.
Tomatoes grown in a greenhouse should not need to be washed, outside maybe, if they are dirty, wipe them off.
