I can't ever just "wait and see." Every walk through the garden includes speculation about the coming harvest. So, what is the tomato forecast, you ask?
Well, the roma types are setting and growing fruit well. The actual fruits do not much like the heat, I've noticed, since there are strange kinds of damage that I'm unfamiliar with -- so blame it on the heat.
But there are tomatoes on those plants.
The big table varieties, Mortgage Lifter and German Pink, are not showing any fruit. At least I'm not seeing any. I always hope that when they start turning red I'll suddenly spot many more -- but at this point they don't seem to be there. Here's hoping I'm wrong...
Yesterday we got almost 1/2 an inch of rain in a horizontal downpour that I missed (off grocery shopping). Chance for more today, but we're also watering.
