Ya'll are doing much better with your plants than I am. I've got about 30 Purple Tomatillo plants grown from seed. So far, I only have about 30 fruit in total. Some have been set and growing for a month at least.

What is weird, is that the plants in pots that get knocked over by the dogs or in general roughed up are the ones doing the best. And they are right next to the planted ones. And of the planted ones, only one has set fruit and grown a husk and that was only in the last 2 weeks.

However, they are all still flowering like crazy and growing. I'm in Zone 8 and they do get at least 5 hours a day of steady sun. And I hope that they will eventually explode before Santa brings me toys.
