My first tomatoes!

I know I know, most of you already have had plenty of ripe red tomatoes, but I'm still proud to say I've got my first tomatoes (EVER!) out in the garden now.

Binkalette,

I don't know how you did it in Minnesota. Your growing season is almost a month behind mine in Texas and my tomatoes are not much larger than yours. Good job.

Thanks Ted! We've had a -very- unseasonably warm year so far. It has been great for growing! Unfortunately the bugs all came out early too.. :p

Nope, not me... plenty of tomatoes on the vines, but none are close to being rip yet.
I think the only people in Tennessee with ripe tomatoes are "hot house" (greenhouse) growers.

Your tomatoes look great!

I agree, I have a lot of tomatoes on my plants but none are ripe. Some have been "hanging out" for about a month and still no color :?
