Tomato Growing Thread 2023

You ain’t the only one. I don’t have a single ripe tomato yet and I’m in the south hoping for next week

 

Same here. Enormous plants with strong stems and very leafy but toms are still green ,

Did you mix the aspirin with the copper @JKW.

Or a separate sprays.

 

I looked a little closer at the earliest trusses to set,( on the self-sown tom), &, while they still need a little time to ripen still, they were looking very good. That particular plant is practically as tall (or short, as the case may be!) as me! (1.64m) . Yet there are 2 others that are fast catching up to it - but they don't have to feed fruit as they have practically none! The self-sown plant has about 5 trusses with fruit. No other plant has more than 2 or 3 at present.

 

some from the last couple of days

 

Hi all tom geeks,,

I thought best and have taken the shading down in the greenhouse any one else done the same .. harvested my first tomato Saturday !!

 

I think I would have took it down a month ago, when summer ended.

 

Congratulations @Spruce ,

I was sat outside, browsing over my mobility scooter reg plate number from the DVLA this morning when I decided to take a break and check on my tomatoes...
To my surprise I have a red one- or at least going red - and only a section of it?

"Still it is my first born in growing, and even though it may look ugly to a lot of people, in my eyes it's the best!

 

The trusses on my Rapunzel tomato - small cherry ones all in a row :-

 

What a stunning colour they are....
