Tomato Plants

One of the things I love about Virginia is the weather! And we are able to plant stuff here like a month & a half earlier than I was ever able to in New Hampshire.

We planted some tomatoes in April. I have to plant them in these buckets though - because we are renting and my husband doesn't think we should dig up yard. Took this pic last week:





took this one today. they are really growing!


a few little ones already showing up - pic of one:

  3. I'd love to grow tomatoes, but some rascally varmint would probably eat them first.

  7. I love fresh tomatoes, I too have to grow in containers,because our yard is landscaped in desert rock, no dirt and if there was it is not good for growing tomatoes and herbs. Good luck with a green thumb!!

  8. Great idea. Landlords can be funny about what you plant and do when you are renting. The buckets cut down on the weeds.

    We have tomatoes, lettuce, peppers, spinach, and zucchinni this year. We cut back a little. It gets busy in the summer.
