Humans stealing green tomatoes.

My only thought when I read that was the movie ‘Fried Green Tomatoes’ ;) Game cameras might help. Keep us posted on the saga of the tomato thieves.

No tomatoes just yet at my house. Unusual for us, even though we were late getting them out.

Hopefully they’ll stop sulling soon. Plenty of blooms, just no maters...

I’m going to take pics of my rice blooms and pumpkin patch tomorrow morning.

These were probably the mortgage lifters, but I haven’t visited the scene of the crime yet. So we’ll see what I find out when I go out to look around.

Our peach trees are dying, and we have not been able to figure out what’s going on. I think they were weakened by last year’s drought, and the spring was so wet, that they have a fungus.

Any way one tree has lost all leaves and appears dead. One has lost half it’s leaves and the others are turning yellow. The third has about 25% yellow leaves and dropping some daily.

We used fertilizer made specially for fruit trees. Haven’t seen any bugs, aphids etc. I think Hubby should dig up the dead tree to see what the roots look like, and spray the others with fungicide and pyola, and take off all the fruit.

We have clusters of grapes that have a disease or fungus they are turning purple and hard at the bottom of the clusters. Last year a coon got all the low hanging fruit-at least we thought that was what did it.

So far this year has presented more mysteries to solve than before.

I look forward to your pictures.
