Kshiken Malaxkwsita : Lenni Lenape for "growing beans"

Mrs. Forte' and Mrs. Montanez's classes worked together to plant 'pole bean' plants.  

Each student planted their own pole bean plant.

Students, along with their teachers create the teepee for their pole bean plants.

Let's see what else is growing on.....

TOMATOES: WHICH IS BETTER?

Determinate or Indeterminate? 

It depends on what you want to do with the tomatoes!

 For example, if you plan to eat some of the tomatoes fresh, 

but you want to preserve/can the rest, a determinate plant might be your best bet. 

Since it sets all its fruit at the same time, it helps streamline the canning process. 

If, however, you want a few tomatoes this week, a few next week, etc., 

an indeterminate plant might be your choice. 

Your ripe tomatoes are spread out over a several week period.  

But why not have at least one of each type, 

to provide constant fresh tomatoes for a variety of uses?
