Healthy enough, so not givin up the ghost quite yet!

--------They look healthy enough, Deano.....

[Deano's "Diggin It"]

Susie! To be perfectly honest! I'm now just "Playing With It" this year! To be fair, As long as I get the fruits I need that I promised the "Tomato seed circle" my goal for this year is done!

But on a plus note! I had a collapsed "Yellow Perfection" vine went wayward a few weeks back, thought it was a gonna, tied it up!

wound "Callassed" over! Now growing n developing fruit!



Very strange thing "Mother Nature"

Should I put reviews on this thread or start a new one?

[Deano's "Diggin It"]

I'd say start afresh Mav! But I'm just a lowly soul!

In September you still didn't have any & some tomatoes had brown specks on the skin? Did you sow them later last year,you've done well this year.

Oh well, I can't find the date of my first ripe tomato last year but it's obviously earlier this year than last.

I tried going back through my own posts but i can only go back 18 pages to February this year. Why is that i wonder?

[Jungle Jane]

We all have 20 pages of recent posts mine goes back to march 2016,it would take too much storage or something technical to keep all of it?

[veggiechicken]

I did an Advanced search for any Scoot posts that included the word "tomato" last year. I didn't find any where you said you'd picked your first tomato!

[Scoot]

Oh well, never mind. I'm definitely ahead this year though.
