I found a yellow pear tomato that is almost ready to pick. There are 19 tomatoes on the plant so I'm hoping some of the others will decide to ripen soon. One pear tomato doesn't make much salad.
I have tomatoes on the Green Stripey plant, also and some on the Early Girl plant too. The first is the green stripey. It's small and I enlarged it so it's a bit blurry.
Early girl. There are 10 tomatoes on this plant. Soon, it will need more support.

They look good and juice  . Wish mine didn't die  . I'll try again next year. Everyone around here has had them all die but a few. So it wasn't me not shore why  . I blame the weather because of the other crops dieing too.

I put my tomatoes in pots this year because our ground is really alkaline and tomatoes like a more acid ground. Plus, it's been so dry here that I thought it would be easier to water them if they were in pots. I need to put more support around them as they are getting quite tall and have so many tomatoes on the plants. Dooley
