Default Tomatoes a plenty

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.

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.
