Those darn Texans and their Tomatoes!

[Jerry]

Got this photo today from the lovely Savahanna.  She killed me on tomatoes.  I am not even close.

If I may put in a plug our local growers club is awarding $500 to the person with the largest tomato.

There is a varity called "Zachs" that can be huge

Hey Jerry.....  How do you know it was Savannah who grew those?  I only see a bunch of tomatoes in a bowl.....not on a bush showing Savannah picking them...

Nice crop of 'mators.

I miss reading Savannahs post and seeing pictures of her menagerie.

Because she said so Mike.
Sue she mau pop in but has been busy and is less enthusistic about sites like this then she once was.  I will tell her you miss her. So do I. :'(

Sue, I sent her this link!

Yup - the great 'mater challenge is on... But Jerry has a longer growing season than we do.
Its about to get too hot for maters...
But there is a new hybrid I planted - Solar Flare~! Supposed to keep on producing through the hottest weather.

Mostly I cook Fufu, Mexican and Italian, all of which use copious amounts of tomatoes. I have about 15 quarts put in the freezer.

Id say you already beat me to pieces.  I do have a few plants that are loaded with blossoms and small fruit  A Roma on the patio looks like it's gong crazy.  I have a new "Everglades tomatoe in the greenhouse, but can't get them in the ground yet. see below.

I tore a Meniscus and am not keeping up at all.
I did clean the priming pot today and found a dead goldie.  :'( The falls were running slow.

I am improving rapidly all of a sudden, so there is hope.
I may paint a few cantaloup's red and tell the folks here they are my tomatoes!

Oopps I just gave it away!

Good to see you Savannah

I have a few blooms today on my tomatoes.  With the drough, grasshoppers and rabbits  we "might" get lucky enough to have a couple to pick.
