Here are a few pics of my tomatoes last night...In addition to my SFB boxes at home I've rented a 25' x 25' space in a community garden where they still do old-shool row crop style. I decided to do some caged tomatoes in rows as well as build a tomato trellis 7' high and 24' long.

These tomatoes are watered with well water, planted in improved clay soil, with six hives of honeybees nearby.

I've never had so many tomatoes loaded on lower branches before.

Row cage tomatoes with long tomato trellis in the background. In the foreground you can find a volunteer dill plant (for the swallowtails), and behind the tomato trellis the asparagus patch (about 5' wide and 50' long).

Hi landarch,

I am so jealous of your tomatoes! You have done a marvelous job and it looks like you will be well rewarded for your efforts.

Happy gardening!

It looks like things are growing very well for you at that comm garden. Keep up the good work.

thanks all...hopefully it will be a good year.

I also picked the last of the snow peas, beets need picking, green beans are about 4" long, and the first cukes are coming on strong.
