My first tomato this year! - Page 2

I'm very jealous. I just planted my tomato seeds a couple of days ago (to get an early start). The local weather report is predicting a snowstorm on Tuesday.

It's nice to share my pics with folks that share my appreciation of tomatoes!

I am growing other tomatoes, a total of 20 or so, not all have fruit but many do now. What's funny is that my one early tomato, Moskvitch, hasn't had any flowers yet, while my mid to late season tomatoes are going strong. I did give away a few Moskvitch to friends on the coast, there they are going strong, must not like the climate here as well.

Our weather has gone from me checking for frost to instant summer heat. It's been in the 90's all week.

My Florida Weave system is looking a bit like overkill, I guess, but it's working.

Awesome, Dak!

I planted my tomatoes about 2 weeks ago, which is 2 weeks to early for NJ. I have them at blooming stage now. Yesterday found first tiny tomato, about a pee size. Man, long time to what you have. Happy for you! Keep on posting. Great picture.

The Florida Weave looks great, not overkill
