Please add me to the weekly gardening thread.
I was all set to can tomatoes last weekend - I could see zillions of giant red ones in their raised bed from my back steps. Canner is ready, jars are ready, funnel, lifter, EVERYTHING - I mean I was ready to rock. I went out to pick them, and every damned one had a hole the size of a golfball in it. Eight cats, and I’ve got something eating holes in my tomatoes.
You might want to consider picking your tomatoes before they become attractive to the birds. Here is a link to a July Weekly Gardening thread - when to pick a tomato - Weekly Gardening Thread 2009 Vol.8 July 03
