Default Loaded With Maters

This is the Early Girl and she's downright loaded. I don't think I've ever had that many on one plant at one time. Credit goes to my sister Pickles because the tomatoes are her project.



That pole in the pic is part of the system I rigged to keep the cages from blowing over. Cages tied to pole, pole tied to the pallets the buckets are sitting on. Works well.

This is the Warrior; harder to tell but it's loaded too. That was a freebie seed year before last. I keep holding my breath against tomato disaster and probably will until the tomatoes are ripe and canned.



Finally, someone here posted about overwintering a pepper in the house and how it just explodes with peppers in the spring when set out. So I tried it with a Gypsy pepper in a ten gallon bucket, pruned it hard in the spring and repotted it. That sucker has been amazing. I was sure sceptical but I'm a believer now!
