its been raining here since night before last, starts and stops. and been in the 70's for a high all week. My tomatoes are still green with a few exceptions.

definately a pepper, maybe some type of hot pepper. I just found out one of my yellow pear tomato plants is actually a red cherry.

i cant say exactly, I can say lots. Thats a pretty good price for a bushel.

also, it should feel heavier than it looks.

sounds great, my kids would love peach sauce but Im not sure how to do juice.

i dont know if they are considered myths because they seem to be true but in the sky my grandfather said red at night sailors delight, red in the morn sailors be warned. Meaning if the sunset is red at night the nexts days weather will be nice or red in the morning it will be stormy. He said...

my grandfather used to inject milk in the vines but Ive never been able to get it in. He swore by it to get big pumpkins. I will try watering it in.

this question was asked about pumpkins a couple days ago, same thing applies. Just let only maybe 2 grow on each vine and they will be bigger, clipping the vines wont make a difference.

if you put them somewhere cool and dry and dark they should keep a little longer

i second that, when it starts to dry up see if the melon gives that hollow thump.

make sure they get lots of warm sun and lots of water and maybe a little fertilizer. I got mine in late and am beginning to wonder as well.

milk is the best thing to lessen the burn....for future reference ;)

thats funny, we had a pear eating cocker spaniel. he would take just one bite out of each one, we really had to make sure we got them off the ground fast.

ice cream :D Im so jealous Ive never seen any wild ones around here but my aunt in NH had them, they are so little and sweet.

if i want a large pumpkin I just allow only 1 or 2 pumpkins to grow on the plant or 1 on each arm. Ive never clipped the vines.

we've always just called them black raspberries but Im sure theres a real name, im near you and ours are ripening. the time frame is pretty wide some places are done and some are just starting. my son knows all the good spots, he and his friend picked so much my grandmother was able to make...

i went out last night and checked again and there are some on. i think last summer was hotter earlier if I remember. my yellows have too, guess they are just slow. I only had a small patch to plant them so they look like this 5'x5' mass of tomatoes.

I agree....taste it ;)

progress report - the one i thought was dead came back very well. Flowers but so far no fruit, but my yellow pears have nothing really so far either. I think last year this time I was over run so Im not sure. Should they have not been planted together?? I dont know much about that kind of thing.

I harvested my first 5 roma tomatoes today :tools im upset with my yellow grape tomatoes though, last year at this time they were abundant, this year nothing.
