Oh! Thats good to hear!! I will definatly be seeking some advice before my plantings next year though! Have to admit I'm really new at this and kind of decided to buy some transplants last minute and see what happened. Didn't know I would have so much fun with it and get so addicted!

Thanks for all your help :)

Okay, another question. I have my patio tomatoes planted in 5 gallon buckets - and its raining and I'm stuck at work. Ususally I bring them inside so they don't get TOO wet, how much rain can they take? :shock:

Did you put drainage holes into your buckets? If the extra rain water is able to drain from the soil you should be fine.

I guess I'm running a tomato flower garden. Tons of flowers and growth, but NO SIGN of fruit yet.

Except on the one plant I'm taking care of for someone else. Go figure. -wall-

Is this common or am I destined for a tomato-less summer with nice plants?

(One variety is "Bush Champion" the other is "Sugary" cherry type)

Spring flowers seem to take a while to set fruit in my garden.
