Tomaters are doing real good. Mini SunSugar and Pears taste great. The beefsteak and beef masters, the big ones,, its just starting but so far what has been tasted is what fresh is all about.

Looks like I will be down on Asian pear but up on Fuji apple harvest, long as the squirrels respect the netting.

Bon appetit and HaPPy 4th of July All!!

Sounding good so far! We aren’t getting too much in the way of maters yet. I have had a few ripe ones. Hubby still has a bunch of green ones.

Hubby has been growing his tomatoes this year in 5 gallon buckets. Also his first year to try to grow roma tomatoes.
He just brought in some to show me, and they have some sort of discoloration kinda taupe colored on the stem end.

Anyone have any ideas about what it is and the cure? I told him to give it some bone meal and epsom salts, since that’s good to add at a certain point anyway.

Any help or suggestions appreciated. Thanks.
