Storm damage

lurley · June 30, 2012

The two tomato plants in the raised bed where the stakes snapped are my two Joe's pink oxheart so I was heartsick when I saw them go... but it looks like the stems are actually intact, even though all the green fruit was blow off of them. Don't know if this greenie is mature enough to ripen inside or not. Had the stakes up in the last garden but hadn't tied anything in that garden yet so I'm gonna bet there are a lot of tomatoes with snapped stems out there since they were very thick, all my dwarfs are in the garden and all the maters from R-Z....
Power is out, more people without power than when the remnants of Ike came through in 2008. Power was out for 10 days then. I really appreciate AC...
