INIr. Pennock obtains from 8 lbs. to 10 lbs. to the plant for the season, but his plants cover 5 sq. ft. The practical results of the two systems are therefore about the same — about 2 pounds to the square foot;* but the uniform single-stem system has some advantages in ease of manipulation, and the plants are so numerous that the loss of one by any accident is not so serious as in the other case. It should be said that the reported yields of house tomatoes are usually made from the spring crop..., not from the winter crop. A winter crop, to be profit- able, should average at least 2 lbs. to the plant, in close planting and single-stem training, and a spring crop * This is over three times the yield per square foot in field culture in this latitude. lyo TOMATO. should average 4 lbs. to the plant. In a good crop of tomatoes, the fruits should average about three to a cluster in winter, and about four or five in spring. Fig. 58 (page 171) shows a good cluster of forced tomatoes. We have made experiments to determine if the second crop from the plant is influenced by the amount of the first crop.
