This year is a good one for tomatoes. I can pick about 15 gallons from seven varieties about twice a week. Most are given away or go to the food dryer!
Makes my mouth water, Jerry! I keep planting tomatoes, and the mole keeps undermining them.The wilt and die. I got very few tomatoes last summer. I am considering pot gardening on the deck!
Artist Reply: Thanks, Julie, I am proud of my tomatoes. If you grow them in pots make sure they are at least 5 gal
size and even bigger would be better! Like a whiskey barrel! Don't feed them too much nitrogen, but lots of potasium and phosphate, and never let the soil dry out!
