My six tomato plants have been staying outside for three days now. The weather has warmed and the nights while cool are warm enough. We are past the last frost date and so it was time to let them stand on their own. i can still bring them in, if a frost warning occurs.
I was blog hopping this am, just seeing what folks are up to when I came across this post about tomatoes over at Skippy’s Vegetable Garden. Tomatoes are usally easy to pollinate as the wind takes care of the job. Even indoors my tomatoes set fruit wihtout any help. Out back wind I have but what has been lacking is heat.
Growing green tomatoes here is easy, getting them to ripen in the short season is the challenge. I do love fried green tomatoes, both the movie and the food.
repotting has begun.
