Really tall Tomato Plants!
As I harvested from my garden yesterday I noticed that two of my five tomato plants are finally taller than myself! My Marion tomato plant and my Juliet tomato plants are at least 6 feet (probably taller!). I have them supported with this curvy pole but that only goes up to a little over 5 feet.
Now I'm 5'10" and the plants are a few inches taller than me!

Harvest before the rain! 7/23/12
I woke up to thunder rumbling in the distance, with the impending thunderstorms I went to the garden to see if anything was ready to pick. I ended up picking a cherry tomato, a small (and odd shape) pickle bush cucumber, and a Marion tomato. The Marion tomato is the first large tomato of the year!!!
