Now We're Talking

The early tomatoes were pretty good, some better than others. Now with the hot temps and more mature plants, the crops are looking better.

Most of these are Better Boy. I have to pick them early to beat the squirrells to them

This is a hodge podge of variety ready to be cut up and put in the freezer. Tomato Red is just a pretty color to me

I can't wait for these Brandywine to be ready.

Well, not all the plants survived this year, but more than enough have, and are doing pretty good. Hard to judge the watering in this brutal heat we are having.

Yes I remember your post earlier this season. But you have some going good and that is all that matters. I lost about 16 plants right off the start. I know what it is like.

And yes trying to find happy medium of watering in this heat is not an easy task. I'm doing everything I can to try and save mine hoping for a reprieve of this heat one of these day's.

Good luck bro
