Thanks.

I picked a few Esterina F1 and some Polarnij Skorospelnij (Polar Early) the day before yesterday. Other than the one Utynyok, they are my first ripe outdoor tomatoes. Taste test coming when they ripen fully.

I was at my dad's house today, and he has a nice garden, but my outdoor plants are still about 2-3 weeks ahead of his. He and I both planted out at about the same time. The black plastic mulch and raised ridges are the difference in making my plants earlier.
