What is it about tomatoes?
« on: July 01, 2013, 20:17 »
My gardeners delight are nice plants, but not many fruits to a truss. In the past, they've done really well, but this year there are only about 9 or ten fruits per truss. Then, bigger toms where you would expect this amount per truss, and they're throwing 3 doz per truss (Moneymaker and Tigrella). Must be all female hybrids to be that awkward. ;). (Awaits incoming). :)

We would not dream of throwing any bricks at you, after all you are only a man.

Human gender banter aside, I'm also quite disappointed with my first foray with gardeners' delight. A lot of green fluff in a bush sort of way, adding to the air flow problem, but really not much flowering going on as recompense. I won't be bothering again with GD, unless it gets it's act together in the next month.

Why do your GD look like a bush?  Haven't you side shooted them?

I love my GD's been growing them for about 8 years now.  Dog loves them too!  ;)
