I planted my tomatoes in May & have faithfully watered the every day all summer & given them plant food every other week. I've hit them with my yardstick to promote some pollination. And they grew tall & had some early blooms but nothing took. And it was a dry, long hot summer, many days over 100 without a drop of rain. Basically the plants baked. But finally, a month ago I got 2 little green tomatoes. They were about 1/2" in diameter & never got any bigger. They are supposed to be big boy tomatoes! And then last week, they had the nerve to turn red. Anyone want to split a BLT?
I think they are out of here tomorrow.
I do have 2 bell pepper plants & both have peppers on them that are actually growing. They are supposed to be red so I'm keeping a close eye on them & still watering every day.
This may be my last year for tomatoes. It's too excruciating.
