Last year I bought starters and planted in mid-May. This year I will use a combination of seeds and starters.

Looks like I accidentally sent you the wrong seeds in the one package. I did have the long green chinese eggplant seeds at that time.

Here is my one and only tomato plant this year, a red cherry. It is four and a half foot tall. It has produced a few ripe tomatoes so far, should be able to start picking twice a week the beginning of next month. Once it starts producing good(2 more weeks) it will produce 30-40 ripe tomatoes per week till early/mid October.
Lets see some pics of every ones garden/plants. |

First off, thanks Ben, if I didn't last year, for your generous offer.
Would have been nice if you would have told me that I would need 6 foot tall by 3 foot diameter tomato cages . And buyer beware ... when you bite into one of these ... best keep your mouth completely and tightly closed or you'll be wearing some of it!! Never snacked on cherry tomatoes like I did last summer!! Again, thanks Ben, for spreading the word as well as the seed Quote:

I grow them hydroponically and have had them 30 foot long/tall before. Yes they do like to explode when you bite into them. A couple tips with tomatoes is water in the morning and not at night and also pick in the mornings before watering. |

I took Rayl up on the offer of some giant pumpkin seeds and this is were I am at. I am going to give the one pictured hydroponic fertilized and grow it in the pictured 35 gallon plastic barrel full of perlite.
Hoping the weather will let me move it outside in about 2-3 weeks. Not sure how it will turn out but am hoping for a pumpkin the size if a Volkswagen Beetle. |

Harvested these giant purple asparagus this morning. Don't usually get many this large. The shiny coin is a quarter.
Anybody else got anything growing? |

This past Sunday my kids unveiled a path to my wife for Mother's Day. It goes through the woods on our property to her garden below. They each made a stepping stone highlighting their personality and relationship with their mom. My wife was surprised and overjoyed. What a great mother day gift.
As far as the garden below we have a total of six 8 X 12 grade boxes that we gave been working on since last fall. Four of them are planted with blueberry bushes. One we are using for a compost pile (at least until next year) and the other for veggies. Mainly tomatoes but also zucchini, cucumbers and watermelon. We are not a gardening family but so far things are looking great. Unfortunately I couldn't get any of the chocolate cherry tomatoes to sprout. I hope to try again next year if Ben is willing no to help out again. Thought researched and did things right but apparently I have a lot to learn about planting from a seed. I'll keep you posted on our progress and maybe post a few pictures here and there. Drew
