The veggies have really started doing things now after all the rain.
Here is an over view of the "New Lottie".

And then an overview of the "Old Lottie".

The inside of the greenhouse as the toms slowlt begin to take off(and over). Do you remember how it looked the day I planted them?


These toms are waiting for me to return to them and do some drastic suckering, defoliating and more tying-in. You can almost see them grow.

Please don't get "lost" in that greenhouse. We enjoy your posts to much to lose you to some tomatoes. Your garden looks so much neater than mine. I love your pictures. dooley

chuckle. Dooley, I shall tie some twine around my waist and anchor it to the doorpost before venturing in.
It looks bushy now...but it's going to be much, much bushier...and taller before I top it out.

Your plot is no nice and tidy, it's a vision! I love the development of those tomatoes. Please make sure you've got cell phone coverage in there in case you need to be rescued.

Hola Cripes, that looks good!! Very nice, and both lotties look like they are enjoying the weather now. Your toms are amazing!! Just tie a rope to your waist then to the door before you enter, so you can find your way back out,,,, Very nice Sjoerd!!

Thanks folks. fingers crossed that all this wetness we've had recently combined with the quickly rising tamps don't give rise to blight.

As for venturing in...I have a GPS fone with tom-tom capabilities and other meteorologic equipment that I shall use to set up a base camp once I'm two days in.

Setting up a base camp beside your tomato plants huh? Mmmmm methinks that's because your going to sit in that greenhouse munching your way through them all before we get a chance to taste them!!! First strawberries and now tomatoes and I thought Stewbies loved to share. Wink Wink

Not BESIDE the plants...IN the plants!
Of course we Stewbies like to share.....but there must be quality control, as someone pointed out the other day. I'm big on quality, but short on control.Wink
