Hi Sandy,
I picked my first tomato of the season a couple of days ago and since I see you grow them I thought you'd like to know the 'dirt' of how I got this beauty. I planted it sideways (to increase root development) in one of the "honey holes" I mentioned in an earlier post on this thread. I added an extra shovel full of worm casting when I planted. After I got the first couple of fruit to 'set' I applied fish emulsion solution about 3-4 weeks apart, plenty of water, and NO chemical fertilizers or pesticides whatsoever. It's a "Brandywine" and there are quite a few more coming along on the same plant, three are almost the same size as this one and most of the others are pretty good sized as well. I'm a rookie at posting pics to the thread so if I can't get it to attach you can check it out in my gallery (the only photo in the gallery so far). BTW, the beer can is only for perspective and not an endorsement...:-) Eric
