I'd say that's a pretty decent final haul. Potentially more tomatoes than many folks in Phoenix will see in an entire season.

Having said that, sorry to hear your season has come to an end. Hopefully, some of those will keep a while.

Pulled my first few plants yesterday, but it is time to pull the rest. The ones that start ripening are developing black and rotten spots before fully ripening on the counter, so it's not worth putting it off any longer. Expecting 2 full days of rain and wind, so when things dry out it will be time to pull them. Until next year.

I like the red pepper that looks like a U-bend!

Paul, nice finish! I just took off the last 5 Prue yesterday; they can finish inside. Now the only one still going is Sun sugar F1 i think. Definitely getting cold here at night, now.

What are the three alike, diagonal in the lower left and right above the Kellog's Breakfast?
