| Tomatoes are not being given in restaurants here in CA. Salmonella scare http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmonella

| Already started.. My family has 4 plants in the backyard. We have been eating them everyday cause we grow so many and dont want to waste any. It is so much better than the stores. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do. |

Gotta go - I must add "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" to my Netflix queue. Thanks for reminding me of it, Bernard. I think my kids will get a kick out of it. They never have trusted vegetables!

| We have a cherry tomato that is almost ready to pick. It is red, but needs maybe another day of sunshine. Also have a softball sized tomato that is starting to show some color.

| Well - I so very rarely have a chance to brag .... I have ripe tomatoes and I've been gobbli ...er ... ah .... I've been eating them for well over a week now. Maybe tomorrow I can force myself to take a photo .... Does anyone know about tomatoes to identify the virus that is quickly killing the plants? Oh, I can identify the virus. I just can't stop it. The fruit is MAGNIFICENT (and delicious) but the plants are being killed so I don't suppose we will have the fruit as long as we should. |

| maybe these plants have been genetically modified and their immunity to virus is low

My tomatoes are still green ... ... but my cayenne peppers and some bell peppers are ripe. Woo Hoo!!!! My sweet corn did nothing this year. Don't know why. Everyone else in the area has great looking sweet corn. p.s. We actuallly tried 'fried green tomatoes' two years ago when we had an excess. They were pretty good! |

| An excess?? lol. I planted 36 plants - Thirty Six!! - for two people...AND two sisters waiting impaitently. I've already taken a few to one sister. I never get enough - never. Happiness is taking a salt shaker out to the garden and crawling from plant to plant eating all you want ..... all you want ~sigh~. |

| I got my veggie garden in late. But we found that the gardener the previous owner used planted a cherry tomato bush as well as a tomato plant. We've had several lovely green tomatoes. Actually, it was the first time I ever ate green tomatoes. |

| I also have a brown thumb. I have killed aloe (like skillefer), cacti, palms, and just about everything else I've tried to grow. The only thing I've been able to keep alive is ivy, but I may be torturing it; it gets really droopy and starts to turn brown before I remember to water it  Hubby, on the other hand has a nice tomato plant, despite our poor soil. So far, we've gotten 3 tomatoes off it. He's also got a thriving blackberry bramble. Unfortunately, the birds have gotten all but one berry  |
I wish 
I would just LOVE to have my own fresh veggies.....
