Update: Hey guys so I know its been awhile since I posted the last update almost 2 weeks!:neutral: I've just become sidelined with other projects and such haven't had the time to do any posting.

The tomatoes haven actually grown quite abit not so much in height but they have become alot more bushier since the transplant, there looking green and healthy. Also its been raining alot today was the first Sunny day in almost a week! I snapped some pictures for you guys to have a look. The make shift fence has actually worked pretty well, ever since I put it up i haven't since had a problem with the animals!

The first 2 pictures are of Early Girl.
The second 2 pictures are The Brandy Wire.
The last picture is both the Early Girl & Brandy Wire together & The make shift fence I made haha !

Oh I didn't know that, they really are a monopoly eh. Makes my kind of scared to see what would happen if weed was legalized and marijuana seeds were in the hands of those companys.

What kind of Burpee vegetable seeds did you pick up Rhino?

Hey there guys, haven't been on RIU in ages. I've been really busy lately but don't think I've forgotten about you guys!

The Earlygirl is about 3ft or so now and the brandy wires about 2 and a half ft they've become really bushy. Between the 2 plants already i'd say theres about 10 tomatoes or so.

I make sauce some times ,but when I have a bunch I just leave giant bags of vegetables in the break room at work.. I always have way to many cucumbers, eggplant, squash, sweet & hot peppers. some times ill bring in a watermelon or a few musk melons.

I don't normally give out the melons or corn because they take a lot of work & time to grow and don't produce that much per crop.

I like that Ryan most people wouldn't give there extras they'd just keep them for them selves knowing their not going to use it and let it go to waste. Thats how most people seem to be in the world today, greedy as fuck.

nice here is another update from me. I love it when you start getting surplus veggies. I get one of those bowls every other day. Now imagine if i didn't have to fight blight since they were seedlings. I have had to cut down major branches when they started turning brown. :cuss:

Oh and that spider is big a s fuck....its like 3-4 inches if you count its legs. The web is bigger then my torso. Scares the fuck out of me when i go to grab a ripe tomato. If I see it move i jump like a little girl. I keep it because it helps with pest control.. Im organic baby

Nice Ryan, you have alot more tomatoes on your plant then me thats for sure I also noticed some of yours are starting to turn ripe on the plant none of mine have made it to that stage yet. The Blights such a major bummer I could just picture how many tomatoes those bad boys would be producing if they were fully healthy. As for that spider fuck that man I haaate spiders anytime I see one I kinda freak out like a girl haha I would have made him relocate ASAP lol!

You guys make me jealous! Here in South Florida, I have to grow my tomatoes in the winter. It is too wet and too hot to grow them in the summer!

You guys are growing some nice tomatoes :) do any of you use potash sulfate to fertilize? Its the only way to get ours to ripen properly in Oz!
