Garden Updates

 Well, its about time to pull my tomato plants up. The wind broke down one of my slicing tomatoes, thankfully it didn't have any fruits so I'm not too worried about it, however, the remaining 2 I'm concerned about because 1 has 3 tomatoes, & the other has loads of flowers, but with it being so cold I doubt it'll pump out any late tomatoes. However, my 3 cherries & jelly beans are still producing & kicking butt! The most recent one that I got off it was a little smaller then a golf ball. I'm going to try & get a "winter" garden going of potatoes & possibly some lettuce, depending on how things go. Good luck winterizing your garden everyone!

Well, here are pics recently of my tomatoes & peppers, I picked about 6 jelly bean tomatoes today, unfortunately they weren't quite ripe enough yet, so they need a little longer to become soft, but they're reddening nicely!
              These are the Jelly Bean tomatoes that I picked today:
     My Brandy Wine slicing tomatoes are plumping up nicely, finally!        Here's a from above view of the jelly bean & cherry tomatoes:
                                  Cherry Tomatoes
                                     Jelly Bean Tomatoes
                                   Cherry Tomatoes
                             Unripe & nearly ripe Cherry Tomatoes
                                   Yet, more Jelly Beans
                  (I have 3 plants of Jelly beans & 3 Cherries)

My garden is growing!

Wow, here are a few new pics (yes, the same plants), but bigger and more fruit! My biggest slicing tomato has turned into "two", so I won't be able to use that one, but the other 2 are looking nice. I haven't got any fruit on the other 2 slicing plants yet, but we'll see. I've got a hot pepper! I bought a 4pack a while ago, & I finally have 1 hot pepper, I forgot to take a pic of it though....but my Serrano's are growing nicely, & I apparently have a pet spider. I'll try and get a pic, he's cute with green eyes. He's been there since hubby moved the pot in it's location, so I'm guessing his momma had her egg somewhere nearby. I'm hoping he's removed himself by the time I bring them in, though, as they're not dangerous, they are aggressive, even towards humans, and I wouldn't want to get bit by him, nor have my daughters or cats!
    I didn't get a good enough pic of the peppers, with said spider in there, defending his area! But I will soon, outsmart the spider.......

This is what I've done to my peppers to prepare them for bringing inside whenever the temps drop lower then 45degrees. I've taken small square chicken wire & wrapped it around, tied with the extra wiring that comes with it.

Ok, as promised, here is a picture of my big Brandy Wine Tomatoes. This was the only picture worthy of going on a blog, so up it went! I can't wait for my other 2 slicing tomato plants to produce fruit!

my garden

well, i finally got produce! i have one cucumber! Plus tomatoes, I have Cherry & Jelly bean tomatoes. Now I have 3 slicer tomatoes on the way, I haven't gotten a picture of them yet, but I will when they're a little bigger. I also have about 12 Serrano Peppers (at least I think that's what they are!)
