    LOL, it's not that bad actually. Especially fresh crunchy cucumber from the garden.

    German Johnsons are the "BEST" tasting tomato.

    The German Johnsons ripened a lot overnight. The Celebrities take a long time to ripen. I picked what I had before something bad happens to them. IMG_20190805_5230.jpg IMG_20190805_12864.jpg
    No blight yet. I put some worms in each container when I planted them, maybe that helped.

    Do you pull the ones that haven't flopped over yet ?
    Force the late ones over to match all the rest a week before pulling ?

    I've been pulling and drying when they are ready, but I have a garden not a farm.
    I usually put mine in the sun for a couple days but I have a lean to I can put them on a screen to dry skins further.

    We pull them when 70% or better are flopped and we pull them all at the same time. Figure the others are going to flop soon enough anyway.

    Um, they’re not ripe yet and still green. :doh:

    :whistle:


    So I can’t say I love this time of year because I do not like the sweltering heat. But I sure do like it...

    A couple of my retired friends just stopped by and took a bushel of tomatoes from 10 tomato plants. I can’t eat them fast enough.
