That video is so funny. I think you have streak of evil in you!

On another note, my tomatoes started out with ber. I added about a table spoon of epsom salt to the nutrient solution and I'm hoping that takes care of it. They are really tiny right now. The new ones look like they might not have it. I'm crossing my fingers.

Well, I showed them pictures of yours and said "live up to that or you get ripped out and I start over." I'm sure thats what prompted the growth.

But only when it comes to Bob, who's a close friend, and who would expect nothing less from me.

Don't think he doesn't like to rub things in real good also, when given the chance. Mr Banana King, indeed!


Plants look good, but sucks about the blossom end rot problem. I tuck a few "Tums" anti-acid tablets into my tomato soil because I heard it helps with this problem, but I've never had it
myself.


Is that a pumpkin plant?!


I once grew a Jack-be-little pumpkin plant indoors but I had to hand-pollinate the blossoms and by the time I put it outside in Spring, it already had little fruits on it! It was a way-cool experience, so good luck with yours also, Tbaleno.

Wink Re: Tomatoes

My newest seedlings:


"Patio"...





"Table"...





The table variety is a small little 6-8 inch shrub that produces surprisingly sweet cherry tomatoes even indoors in winter.
