...although the tomatoes did quite well - no blossom end rot or other problems - they certainly did not do as well as they would have if they were planted in a proper garden...I'm thinking the soil here was just not very good...oh well - next year - right...
...this little one will make one perfect tomato sandwich - I guess the Man and I will have to fight over it...Scout probably will not be in that competition...

Still, there is nothing better than eating food you've grown yourself!
I read recently that you can hang tomato plants upside-down indoors and the tomatoes will continue to ripen. I've never tried it though.
I had the same thing happen with my tomaotes... I had to grow container plants and they're just now ripening. Can't wait until I have a yard! : )
wow! that's amazing that you're getting your first ripe ones! i've already pulled up my plants and mowed over the garden down here!
looks yummy, though!
love, k
One 'mater sandwich, cut in half equals two happy people.
Would that life were so simple!
You are too funny - Scout won't be competing for the lone tomato. My tomatoes are taking forever to ripen too, and mine are not in containers! I don't know what's going on. Good luck with the sandwhich. ;) Be well, Angela (Peach Coglo)
ooo. i have grown to love tomatoes - and mine are just ripening as well.
it was fun to catch up on your news - bullheads and school and music and aquaria and trucks and bulldozers, etc.
looking forward to checking in a bit more regularly . . .

We've had an odd year in the garden this year, too - they really started coming in like two weeks ago - and now hardly anything!
Seems autumn is on its way to the garden already! oof.
That's one beautiful tomato!
