These are my fall tomatoes. They were started from seed on June 4 and transplanted to the buckets on June 28. I've been pushing start dates back two weeks each year for the past several years trying to end up with exhausted plants instead of a boatload of greenies. Hopefully these were started early enough to have most tomatoes picked by first frost around late October.

L to R: Creole, Golden Girl, Large Red Cherry and Early Girl.



They're on the shady side of the garden and don't get full sun until after 12:00. By not getting all day sun the plants aren't as bushy and are more thin-looking but they're setting tomatoes. I've been toying of the idea of moving them to the sunny side. Maybe I'll leave them right where they are for now while it's so hot and move them to the sunny side in September.
