selling out is an indication you need to
raise your prices. Keep raising until you have just a
few tomatoes left over then you've reached your
maximum price point.

Hey Liz!
Thanks for the info and the thoughts towards this. I am only on my 3rd year
doing this...and every is different, obviously. So I have a lot to learn and
love any kind of advice! I have seen heirloom tomatoes going for $2.25/ea
this year around here. So, all in all, it is time to raise my price.

This goes out to all...I need help please...I got aphids, so I used a spray
called organacide, which I have used before a couple of times. Basically
fish oil with some other organic stuff. But because I am a total jerk and
freaked out, I sprayed too much and now a lot of my tomatoes and peppers are
sufficating and dying. Do you think that if I used a 4/1 ratio of dish soap
and water (more water than soap), it would help rinse some of the oil off, at
least so they can breath? I am just devestated...live and learn. I hate that
freakin'motto!
