Sorry Brian. Be sure to use the anti-static cloth on the monitor.

There you go Nick. No excuses now. Don't even have to pay for it all at once. Butch, did you try that excuse "I was just doing a little gardening and, voilà there they were, big as day. What are they anyway"?

Here you go. The last picture is of an orange tree I planted a few months ago. It's showing a little stress from the 112 degree day we had the day before yesterday. It gets the afternoon sun reflecting off the building behind it too.

Looking good treedude. I've probably picked a couple of tomatoes off of each plant. I'd take some pictures but I have weeds and I want to represent but alas am too lazy. So I'll just tell you about it.

PIcture from today. I planted some sweet corn to the right of the tomatoes last week.

You can catch a little more time up in the summer being further north than me OM. Che, you'll just have to be a little later. :( I have been in the midwest a few times and it seems like a greenhouse in the summer with the humidity. Plants love that. People, not so much.

I'll have to go out and look but I don't think so. I went and looked and I do have a few. Ladies and Gentlemen, for your viewing pleasure, my tomatoes. I put a little nitrogen fertilizer in the furrow a week ago or so and watered it in.

Took this picture this morning.

I should go out and put the wire cone things on my tomatoes, but I'm being lazy.

They are all the Roma type only more so. Practically no water inside and tuff as hell. You could take a ripe one and throw it hard against a wall and it wouldn't splatter it would only crack a little. They don't want to be buying water.

When I grew tomatoes for Heinz blossom end rot was controlled by never letting the soil dry out. We usually had 2 120 acre fields and after the plants started flowering we would have about a 1200 gal/minute flow of water going in each field for about 6 weeks until there was about 10% ripes and...

Describe away Che.

You obviously know all the tricks.

Well you guys make up for it by having longer days in the summer, right?

If you guys are canning any of these, the Roma types will yeild a lot more stuff in the jar as the Ace type are composed of more water than the Roma types.

We used to can some. It's been about 10 years.

Do the plants look any bigger?
