This is a picture of one of my trusses with a leaf bundle on the end of it (Parks Whopper). Is this normal or am I over fertilizing or under fertilizing? |

Here is my new bed for 2016, I am experimenting with starting the plants on 4 ft stakes, then growing them into the white mesh that is attached to the 8ft posts surrounding the bed. I designed this so that I can shift the entire top of the mesh outwards instead of the aframe position it is currently in

Its not my fault they are small lol. UK weather is a dream if you love constant overcast drizzly summer with nights down as low as 38 F in mid summer I have witnessed.

While not technically a plant photo, here is my first blushing tomato of the season (a big Black Krim), and some of its green siblings.

"GGWT are beautiful tomatoes, ripe or not!!".
Agreed, but I couldn't figure out what GGWT means! Here are my not ripe striped dwarves. |

GGWT = Girl Girl's Weird Thing (I only know this because I received seeds as a free sample; I'll be growing them next year.)
Those dwarf tomatoes look beautiful! |

Well, kinda for personal use they aren't promised to anyone. I just like to have plenty. Big Beef is the variety. Grew it the first year it was released on the outside, then I grew them in a tunnel the next year, and that is where it has remained the last couple decades.
