Tomatoes, tomatoes and more tomatoes!!

Well, it was like this y'see.

I've got 8 compost bins (disguised as 'beehives') scattered around my garden and, earlier in the year, I emptied 'em out and dug in or spread their contents around the borders. Now, I realised when I did it, that the last one wasn't fully rotted down, but there was just this one bit of garden left so I thought, 'Oh, what the ....' and emptied it anyway.

Note to self - Not a good idea. Clearly, those squishy tomatoes that I assumed would just rot away have, in fact, sat in/on the soil and their seeds have germinated to the extent that now I have tomato plants popping up all over the place!

I wouldn't mind, but the irony is that for years I tried to grow tomato from seed without any success - until this year, when I had so much success that there can hardly be a tomato plant growing within a 5 mile radius that didn't begin life as a seed in my greenhouse. :DOH:

 

I've had the same from my worm bin this year, i've let a few of them grow on just to see what they would produce.

I'm sure if Kristen was here, he'd be warning us about blight so i'll do it for him

Just sprayed my West Bay plot with Bordeaux mixture and i'm just about to do the same to the home plot. Don't want a repeat of last season:(

 

lol.....I have the same problem, but with forget-me-nots.

 

I emptied one of my compost bins to mulch the garden back in March and I've had tomato seedlings popping up ever since :D
