They're growing ...

ImageImage

The German Johnson has got black on the leaves and hasn't flowered , though it's grown quite large . Dont kniw why that is and im tempted to pull it but will wait and see next weekend . The Early Girl is smallish in comparison to the others and just started some flowers and one super tiny tomato . I'd guess thst thed Early Girl isn't gonna be earlier than the star if them , which is the San Marzano . Both of those are growing excellent and have tomato clusters already on them as well as multiple flowers . The Celebrity is more a buydh type plant and it's not as high but wider . It has flowers and one little tomato .
Other than the German Johnson , uts looking good

These are my Celebrity's.......I had 5 but the one on the far end died of some wilt disease.Rather than start a late mater plant I threw in an orange bell pepper plant.We've yet to enjoy a mater but as you can see they are loaded.......soon,very soon.

Those two monster's in the middle far end are my cherry maters.I've been trimming them back but they're still getting away from me.

And as all can see......we've been concentrating on getting the house painted,not weeding the garden.

Squirrels dug up some seeds, a passing woodchuck sampled the greens, but the garden is established.

I planted the beans too early in my 3 sisters beds. They're out growing the corn and climbing all over ghemselves.
