My dream is here - THANK YOU ALL!

I had a dream, a dream to have a garden, where the fruits and veggies would look and taste as I remembered from childhood... Specially Tomatoes!

This year I had a chance to start my own garden for the first time. There is always trial and error, you live you learn, but could not have done this with out all of your help - thank you all so very much for all the advise and the "coaching"!!! My harvest today:

[img]https://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i230/duhvinci/2009_garden/07_18_2009_first_true_harvest.jpg[/img]

In no particular order:

Lemon Boy
Valencia Orange
Black Krim
Black Tula
Cherokee Purple
Red Cherry
Yellow Basket Boy
Yellow Pear
Tumbling Tom
Husky Cherry Gold
Plum Lemon
Boston Picling
Lemon Yellow

Many thanks again for all the help!

Regards,
D

I can only wish for such a bounty! anyway, your hard work motivates me (first time tomato grower) to care for my plants so they too can be all they can be.

Thank you all very much!

I enjoy gardening immensely, a what a pleasure to come home from work, grill up some dinner, go the garden, get some fresh herbs and veggies - life is good!

You said it right there. And yeah, I would grill every day if I could afford all that meat.

Nice bounty, glad to see someone else being overrun with the pickings! :)
