tomato update 25th July

today Tues the 27/7/21 My first red un,

I'm now looking forward to the taste of a home grown tomato, Its unbelievable , a look back to 2015


a home grown tomato

Brilliant Tom,mine are still pale green..yesterday I sawed down a pear tree and a cherry tree,they haven't produced anything for three years ..the next is a plum tree for the same reason when my green bin is emptied.

well done you maureen, sawing is hard work, I hope your tomatoes turn out good, maybe we can do a swap when they ripen, i bring you some of mine and you give me some of yours,

Tom..I was shattered when I'd finished..plus everything seems to be overgrown especially weeds,I've used roundup but it hasn't done much,I've been pulling nettles up brown clover,weeds I've never had before..and they're even growing in between the paving stones on the patio,I'm taking them out every few days..oh the joys of gardening..but I'm determined to get it all sorted...that'll keep me busy won't it.lol

Tom,if my cucumbers grow you can have them..they don't agree with me.

today we eat home grown tomatoes

What variety are they?

money maker and gardeners fancy, yum yum,

Tomp. I was gifted a Comfrey plant he other day. have a google and tell me if you want the bas herb.

Presumably you were getting it mixed up with BASil.

walsh could never grow a tomato, let alone a spine.

I got one cucumber a massive one my lad said the taste was amazing but...the rest of the young ones all shriveled up...dissapointed isn't the word.

oNE MASSIVE CUCUMBER IS NOTHING TO BE SNEEZED AT!
Neither is the caps lock key, which I hate.

plant must have put all it's energy into the one.....

I wouldn't care but it was going great guns..nearly filling the greenhouse.

OH!
TMI!

oh maureen you are making me giggle......

a whooper hey,

The plant I meant..not the cucumber lol.

I must learn how to spell disappointed too..

A friend recommended I put horse manure on my strawberries.

Not doing that again, I'll stick with the whipped cream!

Neigh lad neigh.

and thrice neigh , horse manure is better ate without seasoning:D
