Tomatoes a plenty

Higgy · 08-16-11, 10:33 AM

Well my tomatoes are reddening. 3 different kinds. Gregory's Altai, Brandywine and my father in law's. For the life of me I can't remember the name, but it's also an heirloom. These are mostly from the self-watering tomato planters but I also have a few from the garden as well. The ones from the self-watering planters are bigger then my fist as you can see.

Dang, that is a large tomato. Taste any yet?

Jealous. Mine have been done and dried to a crisp for two months now.

Yeah, but you guys have been having 100+ weather for over a month now too. Our weather has been hot as well with no rain, but hot for us is high 80's low 90's.
