My tomato jungle

After about 4" of badly needed rains and a little cool down this week in Texas, my tomato plants are certainly thinking me.

New Tomatillos dripping off the plants, and quite a tomato jungle that seemed like it happened overnight.


We must have no less than 1000 little Yellow Pears, Sungolds, Tomatillos, and Black Cherry coming in. Have 4 Cherokee and Goose Creek plants that have quite large ones on there, even with the squirrels taking their share! Grrr.

Picking handfuls of green beans daily, and jalepeno and banana peppers dripping with fruit also.

All 30 onion and garlics came up this week, and are drying in a shady spot!

I love Spring, and already planning next Springs schedule!

Yes, it has been! :cry:

Luckily our rain barrels are watering about 90% of the time. But we are running out of 'free' water very slowly indeed.....
