6-21-2007 Update

Tomatoes almost to the top of there cages



Roma's still alive! Tomatillos starting to get bigger "at least the ones on the right ;-)"



New trellis for the peas and beans since someone/thing riped them off the old one (I wonder who)


Zucchini staring to flower.

Tomato leaves

These are the leaves of of two of the red lightning tomatoes from Burpees. Something just doesn't look quite right.

Rooting cuttings

After the Roma tomatoes died I did not know what to put in there place since it seemed that all of the Roma's were sold out and there was some mysterious plant killing force that effected all of the plants at the stores as well. I came across an article that said that you can grow additional plants form cuttings so I am giving it a try.

Tomato collars

Put collars around two of the tomato plants. I was going to put them on all of the large plants but the cages had to be removed to put them in and the plants got too beat up in the process. Put them on the right two and the rest were used on the new Roma plants.

Romas one more chance

Well we are giving Roma tomatoes one more chance. Put in three form K-mart in the back two and front left . Also put in red tomato collars we will see if they actually do anything.

Update

Tomatoes grew about two inches in two days


Squash bigger in two days


Planted a purple pepper

All but two of the Roma's died after transplanting.
