Growing tomatillos is quite similar to growing tomatoes - requiring full sun, warm temperatures and deep planting of seedlings to thrive. Tne important difference: you need at least two or three plants to get any fruit. They are self-incompatible, meaning a single plant can produce hundreds of flowers but will rarely set fruit without another plant for cross-pollination. Remember, the fruit is ready and ripe when the husk turns tan and breaks open.
