True or False...

False. That's a funny story: I have an enclosed porch (windows with screens). One year, I tried planting tomatoes in containers, and got a lot of those little yellow flowers, but no tomatoes. Of course, it was because the plants couldn't get pollinated without the bees or some other insect getting to them; the screens were the big villain here. I felt like the world's most ignorant farmer.

True ..we have robins all year round in my garden here ..I've got loads of photos over the years , they are so cute, they sit and wait patiently to be fed when they see the bird food barrel coming out for the feeders, or if we're digging in the garden and leave the spade stuck in the ground they sit on the handle, waiting for us to dig up a tasty worm...

You're trying to get over some kind of illness..
 
False. Fortunately, I'm in pretty good health, and am trying to stay that way. (Self-quarantining).

You have some favorite items of clothing, that you tend to wear very often when you are hanging around the house. Mostly based on comfort.

You need to pollinate them with a little brush!

You're starting to repeat yourself. :)

Rosemarie, really? I never knew you could do that? Where do you get the pollen?

They pollinate themselves. You need a fine brush (as in a childs painting brush) and gently brush inside each flower. You'll be transferring pollen from one plant to another. I've grown tomatoes on my window sills for years, so you can take my word for it.
 
False. I only buy a couple bananas at a time... I like green at the tips. I eat more apples & oranges than bananas.
