Re: The Toms are in

Thanks so much for that! Will let you know how it goes; would never have thought about the mold being beneficial; would have assumed the batch had gone bad and chucked it out!

Re: The Toms are in

Almost ready to put out - now they have grown!

Re: The Toms are in

I had to plant the first two Marmandes out this morning as they were badly outgrowing their pots and starting flower buds. I usually wait till the first week in May, but needs must.. will put the smaller tomato, peppers and basil out then. Potatoes not up ....

Re: The Toms are in

I'm getting all trussed up . . . . yeah, I've got several forming.

Re: The Toms are in

Steph's a real magnet for the bees . . . the stink off her's got big bumbles going crazy . . . I was working in the GH earlier and I though it was an air raid . . . they make some racket.

She's in full bloom just now so I'll take a pic tomorrow . . . the perfume's divine.

Re: The Toms are in

While you're taking the pics tomorrow do one of your new fountain too, please!

Re: The Toms are in

DAMN! The first blossom on my tomato fell off, not fertilized. When you only have three plants you notice things like that!

Re: The Toms are in

That's one less tomato for your pesky squirrel, Eileen

Re: The Toms are in

Hope you're not suffering froma bee shortage Eileen

I'm putting my outdoor tomatoes out tomorrow - hope they'll be Ok. The ones I've grown from seeds from the Tomato Festival are doing great - I'll keep you up to speed with them . Noir de Crimee and Peche Blanche, en francais - we tasted the Crimee (sweet and large, like a Marmande) but the Peche will be a new experience
