That's way too much green. Need more red, pink, purple and yellow.

Just kidding, y'all. You're looking like some interesting harvests are in your very near future. Looking good!!!

Excellent!!!

Mine to the exception of some cherry tomatoes are still green but getting to be on that cusp of flashing some color.
Yours are looking fantastic!
I bet you can't wait to see them ripe and ready t pick and eat.

It's an exciting time of the year. Looks like Brad's Black Heart is setting well for you, I need to take another look at mine, maybe all the heat has finally made it start setting this year.

My Trenton's tiger is frustrating me, it's one of the larger plants in that row, covered with tomatoes and hasn't ripened a single one yet...

I love tomato babies - I can look at them all day long. Beautiful kids you've got, I enjoyed the photos very much!

Thanks all i thought you ll would love to see them, i think i have a few doubles coming, the Stump of the world was wonderful 2 years ago last time i grew it, huge pinks. Much earlier than Brandywine and sweeter. Trentons Tiger and Solarl flame are nice, very tough plants but the fruit it very slow, really slow. Paul Rosborn and Amazon Chocolate are my best 2 plants, loaded with fruit, perfect for me, cause PRs are my favorite, and any other black. BTD is a beauty plant for fruit this year so far, no more MC fertilizer this year i loaded them 13 days ago with Garden -Tone around the stem for food. It supposed to take 14 days or more to take off, so iam ready now come on kids.
My hot pepper plant have been getting eaten all summer so far terrible , i feed them extra water new top leaves grow then ants. I did spray Epsoma Insect spray on top and bottomes of leaves, put ant traps in garden. Did lift a herb pot up which was in my garden, loaded underneath with aphids. I will look for posts here now i give up, Red and Yellow Bhut, Red Caribbean, Scorpion, Falila, even 1 kind of Markos Elephant peppers are being eaten.

My Trenton's Tiger and Solar Flame seem really far behind the others, too, for the size of the fruits. We'll see if they're worth the wait.

That's a mystery about what's chomping your pepper plants. The aphids wouldn't be eating them but they're the reason for the ants being there. Have you had any worms inside the fruits? I've been spraying with bt in hopes of preventing those worm holes and rotten fruits that I've been getting.

You've got some nice ones on the way, Steve!

Just found ants on the pepper plants eating leaves. I put compost from my compost, is see the red ants which were in the compost.

great preview of whats to come shots. Can't wait to see the final before they are eaten....

Double dose of Epsoma and Shults insect spray on the peppers, both oof these are very weak. So I put some ant bait in there.
