I have just picked my first 3, they are lovely and ripe and I am pleased, as I thought that was quite early for outdoors. - Little things please little minds  :lol:  :lol:Mrs Bouquet

Been picking greenhouse tomatoes for a month now.  The ones outside in the front garden are turning red, but those in the back garden are still green.

Well done.
Enjoying the traditional ways and values of life.

Hi

I have been eating cherry tomatoes from outside for the last month or so, so far only had 2 larger moneymakers ripen ....... but a few others are starting to go.

I was really please as everyone told me not to expect anything till August  :)

Had a tomato each tonight as a 'starter' from Gardner's Delight on the patio in a pot. The ones in the greenhouse (Shirley) are only just beginning to bud up.  The other ones outside of which I have no idea  what they are are covered in a variety of green tomatoes of all sizes. My cucumbers (in the greenhouse are only just about in flower, very dissapointed).

My 24 outdoor tomatoes are no more!!  :(

Last week-end I cleared the lot as they had blight - yet again this year!!  :(
Up until the Thursday before they looked lovely with fruit setting too then... tell tale signs and darkening stems and blemished fruit...

I give up with outside tomatoes on the plot after three years of blight.  >:(
