Jealous of your first tomato! I have a lot of green globes on the vine and I should have cherry-types maybe at the end of the week.

I usually make the obligatory opening season tomato sammich to use the very first one.

I dug up about 3.5 pounds of yukon gold yesterday from a small 4x8 ish area where I planted potatoes. I have red potatoes on either side that went in a month after the yukon gold. I think they might have done better in a sunny spot. That area only gets a few mild hours in the morning. I have very few all day sunny spots and I have to save those for peppers and tomatoes and whatnot.

Collard greens are starting to get big enough to pick. I had one or two plants that were started early now the rest of them are catching up.

I made tomatillo salsa last month and one of them was kind of sorry so I sliced it, dried it and planted it. They are in a really big pot now(they spread everywhere I hear)and almost a foot tall.

I should probably start more cilantro in a shady area all of mine is fixing to bolt.
