Mom's turn: You say tomato...

So I’ve mentioned what a garden-nerd my HH is with his organic mixtures…well, there must be something to that compost tea he’s been working with besides just being a bucket of bubbling sludge! These tomato plants were put in the garden on 3/22…only 48 days later they are almost as tall as my hubby (who is a svelte 6’1”) and full of flowers and baby fruit. Today, nine days later, they have topped the cages and are still climbing!!! And to think he was worried he made the cages too big – silly boy! Now we're worried about what to do with all those tomatoes!

You'll have to try your hand at canning tomato sauce! :^D Or sharing with your friends!

Okay, tell Travis he needs a "control group" of tomatoes to see just how well his compost tea is doing!
