    I have a fair number of tomatoes on my plants! All still green. I did see one cluster of cherry tomatoes, and one of those was starting to turn yellow. I am SOOOOO ready for fresh tomatoes! :thumbsup

    What did you do in the garden today?

    My climate is quite different, but this is what I do. I save the biggest cloves for planting, and plant mid-October, after prepping the bed with compost.
