Visual aid of some Heirlooms

I can't keep talking about these tomatoes and not sharing with you just what all my fuss is about. Forgive the formatting of the photos. I haven't grasped adding these pictures yet 100%.

These are the Green Sausages. I think I have some BER, likely from Calcium deficiencies since this is in a container. Still plenty of manure. I will see if the problem is isolated to one fruit and research quick take calcium options in the meantime. Aren't they all weirdo lookin'?

These are the Black Princes. Nice globes, quiet different. So far the best heirloom producer in the garden. I know it's early.


Here is a Black Krim. He snuck up on me. He was hiding deep in the bush. "I finded him, I finded him!"

A couple of the Big Russian Romas. These lads are popping up in 3-4 clusters, with one per plant. So I guess I should expect about twelve at a time... Almost enough for some sauce.

I will put up a photo of the mess that the rest of my garden is asap. 90s today, gross, I hope I have no blossom drop.

Dude, assuming you are E.

Just be patient, and make sure they stay hydrated. Not WET, just keep them well watered and they will fruit before you know it.

Now I'm confused. What's the difference between wet and hydrated? Is wet more than hydrated? Or is hydrated more than wet?

Hydrated is just right.

Wet is soggy.

What are you growing them in? Ground, beds, pots, etc?
