Last week’s
Advance article featured harvesting your garden vegtables, and I would hate to
find out that some of you have tomatoes dying on the vine because you don’t
have within eye site a traffic light. Let me give you another surefire method
of harvesting these orbs of tasty goodness.
To do the job properly you will
need a cardboard box (roughly 2’x2’x18” high), a stick, 100’feet of string, and
some sunflower seeds. Your quest, your mission, the male Cardinal.
Position
the stick so it holds up the box in a way that causes the box to be angled off
the ground. Place the seeds under this angled box, with a few outside the box
for visibility. Attach the string to the stick, unwind it to a hidden location,
and wait for the cardinals.
Once the bird is secured pick
only the tomatoes that match his color. If you find that your tomatoes are
rather hard and tasteless it is very possible you’ve caught the female of the
species.
