Re: Tomatoes.
I reckon it'll be another two weeks before the first of my tomatoes are ripe. I've got 19 plants, 10 of which are plum tomatoes and the rest round ones which were given to me by neighbours. For the first time I'm growing runner beans as well as the French sort. They're unheard of over here but I brought a packet of seeds back from the UK not knowing how well they'd grow in a hot climate. Much to my surprise they're doing really well and I can't wait to pick my first crop!Re: Tomatoes.

I have always done it as it helps to alleviate leaf curl also.Re: Tomatoes.
Mine are coming ripe now... Delish!! I ony have one plant... but it's quite a plant. I've let it grow without pruning.. just to see how big they get.. It's pretty big.. I was worried it wouldn't produce that many tomatoes, but it has.. One plant that big is enough for hubby and myself.Re: Tomatoes.
Mine are just about over thank goodness! I had a bumper crop this year of both plum and round tomatoes. So far have picked around 15 kg (33lbs) and reckon there's another 7 kg (15 lb) to go. Far too many for me to eat on my own so what I haven't managed to give away have been frozen or made into soup ready for winter.
