Have not posted much this busy summer, but the harvest has been plentiful, with hundreds of tomatoes, mostly those of what I call large cherry toms, saved from previous harvest, since they seemed more diseases resistant, even if not as sweet and tasty. as I prefer. Neighbors and I like them, all thanks and glory be to God in Christ.

10-01-2025: petering out, but still producing, praise God. First frost may yet be 3-4 weeks.

Love your tomato jungle!

“”petering out, but still producing, praise God. First frost may yet be 3-4 weeks.””

Don’t get me wrong. I’d never move up north ... but having tomatoes still growing this late would “almost” be worth it.

As it is, there’s only a few months’ window of opportunity here in Texas before the extreme heat and drought sets in.. pretty much every year. The soil temperature eventually kills the plants even if they’re covered by shadecloth and watered twice or more times a day. Sigh.

Nice garden, btw.

Just watched this short video - italian lady showing how to pickle green tomatoes, for those of you who still have some and might be looking.
