I have one more tomato now, a small shrubby one that hopefully will provide trusses of medium sized fruit.
The plastic hothouse bags were off after a few days, tomato plants are wind pollinated so the flowers were not going to make babies. Growers have tomato plant vibrators that shake the plants and large hothouses have automatic systems to ensure pollination.
The mesclun lettuce seedlings grown from seed are starting to look like lettuce. Planted the beetroot seedlings and they look happy. Black beans are just starting to flower and we ate some peas from the pod today.
The plums are larger
