Thanks for the ping. I have not posted for a while due to being active in other things, but the good news is that dozens of toms have been harvested, and more will be, by the grace of God.

However, I think I need a much longer season if I am going to drastically prune the Septoria(?) blight, as I have been partly doing, and did earlier with plants that first showed it before setting fruit. Sprayed with copper fungicide weekly, but that did not seem to do much with most, perhaps too to being too crowded and with too much foliage.

Daniel, IIRC I think Diana was right and identified those as Gloriosa or Rudebeckia daisies! Nice flowers!

I have to say that for seeds you harvested from store bought tomatoes they seem to have a good yield!

Blight. You might research whether dilute solution of baking soda and neem oil would help with fungal blight.
