isawasnake Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 I have looked, no luck. I take it there are none, at least at a reasonable price. Thanks. Here is a pic just in case. I am longing for salsa verde is the impetus btw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonaldBattles Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Tomatillos grow extremely well in northern Thailand. They are easy to take care of. All you have to do is buy some seeds and get started. The first year I grew them for I let my staff give the local farmers 2000 seeds and I ended up with truckloads of them. Tomatillos can also be used in spaghetti sauce as they tend to take the sweetness out of the Thai tomatoes. I grew the tomatillos for making green salsa that I sold commercially with other Mexican vegetable products for many years. As I am retired from the food business I will grow some in my cooperative vegetable gardens this year. I grow several farang liked vegetables in my cooperative gardens. Friends and others pick themselves and pay by the kg or bunch. A nice hobby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kikoman Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I am having tomatillo seeds mailed to me from Mexico, I live in central Thailand and hope to grow them here, as tomato's grow very well here. I hope I will have the same success with the tomatillo's. Cheers: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somtamnication Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Well, the key is Northern Thailand. I have tried growing jalapeños in Phuket and it does not work, at least for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tominbkk Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Well, the key is Northern Thailand. I have tried growing jalapeños in Phuket and it does not work, at least for me. Is it the climate or soil? If soil, then you could use boxes and work on the proper mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice555 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Hello All, tomatillos, jals, serranos, anchos, habs, NuMex/Anaheim's and epazote have grown very well here in Korat part of the year, about to start plants for the new growing season. Another TV member has posted pictures of his tomatillos grown in Surin. If the OP finds them in BKK, please post info. rice555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isawasnake Posted August 17, 2013 Author Share Posted August 17, 2013 I would post the info. I think the key is to try and grow them myself though, perhaps when i head up north. Just need some seeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
