Tomato season is upon us! Three and a half bushels put up yesterday (61 litres stewed, and 11 1/2 pints of salsa). This year I got experimental hybrid seeds from the University of Florida and grew paste (Roma), beefsteak, and cherry tomatoes. They grew remarkably well, produced fruit by the bucket, and they all taste absolutely wonderful. Sweet, juicy, firm, and practically flawless. Apparently these particular varieties are meant to be especially high in nutrition as well. Best ones I've ever grown, and a fantastic yield.
Next week are peaches and crabapples, to be shortly followed bv pears, Spy apples, and concord grapes.
Maybe I can help ��
ReplyDeleteYou are heroic! But hopefully it'll be done by the time you get here.
