Does anyone like to garden?

Lookin' GOOD Chillen! And I thought my tomatoes were kicking a$$. You've got some nice ones there.

DEF! Well, blow me down! :) :) How are you?! Good to see ya! Really hope all things are well with you! :)

Thanks, for the comment, DEF.

My Chocolate Cherry Hybrid, is giving some minor wilting complications, as I mentioned in this post in my journal:

Off to train and to do some cardio-activity......


But first a bit of bad news: The Chocolate Cherri Hybrid (which is the one I have been waiting for the most), are wilting at the tips near long flower clusters (but no where else). Wilting (like this) is always a bad sign. I haven't waited weeks and baby and nurtured these plants to have it wilt and die on me. I am not one of those that go off thinking its F-Wilt, or W-Wilt disease (the symptoms don't Match any way). It could be over watering (which is the most favorable possibility of all of them), underwatering (least likely), start of root rot (from over watering at the point where it feeds the tips if branches effected), bacteria wilt (again, I dont think so, symptoms do not match)., or......

Its just plain pissed off that it has to ripen all these small tomatoes and yelling at me.

I brought them inside the house and put them in our very large kitchen to the dismay of my on-looking, bewildered and confused, ready to bring out her wolverine claws of death, wife, if I muck-up her kitchen.......>:)

Hmmmmmm, next time she asks for a tomato for cooking......I hope one of the branches swats her in the ass.......:)

;)

===================

If you read the above,,,,,,,,,,,huh, uh!

My wife got back from the pool, and she was wearing a bb-cap, and walked into the kitchen, and she wasn't watching where she was going, and one of the branches knocked off her BB-cap........to her embarrassment.......

Thanks bro (to the Chocolate Cherry plant), for haven' my back....

that will teach my babes to give me the eye look.......

he, he

My Chocolate Cherries have serious issues, LOL.

A stupidly prolific producer.

I liiiiiiike those types of issues, baby!

It is amazing and satisfying at the same time. I will literally have bushel baskets between both of them.

Took some more pics. This is one of them. Both plants are virtually identical, so I am posting just one to save space

Just showing some of the clusters:


This will be post one of two:

Man your crop is magnificent. My tomatoes grew tall and put out alot of buds but I'm disappointed in the production and the vines look like the gopher got them. All my beds have galvanized wire under them to keep the critters out but they all look like they have verticillium problems. The taste is great and we have plenty for ourselves but not enough to sell yet. My seedlings are looking great and I hope to baby them along as houseplants this winter. Nice plants and crop Chillen. Did you plank?
 
And, to follow up on the aforementioned clusters, here are a few finished products of the Chocolate Cherry Tomato Hybrid:

The resemble little cherries, hence their name. A very unique smokey tomato taste like no other tomato.
