Default The EarthTainer "Farm" May 1, 2012 - First Ripe Tomatoes

Well, May 1 and I have 3 ripe Iditarod Red tomatoes today. Also in the same EarthTainer, a Yukon Quest, a Rosella Purple, and a Caitydid F4. We'll see how 4 of the Dwarf plants coexist in one 31 gallon EarthTainer.



I planted this one out on February 1 and it survived the cool Spring weather. Hat's off to the Gals up there in Alaska!



Since putting in the plants one month ago, they have really taken off:


Barlow Jap............................................... ........................Gary'O Sena

36 inches tall today.


Applause.......................................... ................................Champion 2


Better Boy............................................... .........................Terhune


Jetsetter......................................... ...................................Jet Star


JD Special C-Tex............................................... .................RAF


Goose Creek (pair)


Red Boar.............................................. ............................Solar Flare


MarNar F3................................................ ..........................MarNar F2


Momotaro F1................................................ ....................Odoriko F1

The Dwarf Project plants are doing great. A pair of each in the 2 InnTainers:


Tastywine........Caitydid F5....................................Tastywine... ..............Caitydid F5

Big Bertha has already set fruit:



Sweet Success cukes:



And the first of 7 EarthTainers of corn has been planted:



So, for May 1 timeframe, I am quite happy with the results.
