I 'll try to find our picture of the setup.

Husbands are handy to have around if you grow tomatoes. Maybe I'll think about getting one.....

Marsha,

I'm sure you are up to your ears in tomatoes and too busy to spend much time on the internet, but it's time for an update!! How goes it?

Well hello Ginny, it goes well. Doing the seed offer still, still have most varieties so can replenish supplies as they get low. The latest photos have been of Dwarf Project tomatoes since they have finally come in. I have to pull one of them, because it caught TYLCV, before it gives it to the others. My fault, there is no yellow sticky trap anywhere near it. I have a volunteer Gran's Portuguese neighbor that I am going to put in its place and see what happens. I have a few spent determinates that I am going to replace with more GPN since the tomato fell off, and a bunch of seeds sprouted.
Ginny, want any of my seeds this year?

Geez Marsha, at 4 degrees F tonight, we'd give our eye-teeth for that harvest! I guess we can't complain too much with Boston becoming the new Buffalo at this time.

Wow! I was able to access the Internet and this site today. I found this thread and find it awesome. Your wonderful info and pics on many of these new varieties for me is so helpful. I may have to scrap a lot of my 2015 list and start over, though! LOL! Thanks for posting all the pics!

Dan, stay safe and warm. My season will be over by the end of April, yours will be just cranking up by then, so I will be having my tongue hanging out for fresh tomatoes.

Jessica- there weren't really any bad tasting tomatoes this seAson. You pretty much can't go wrong with almost any that I grew. Only one spitter in 87 varieties, first time I ever had a season that good.

Marsha, the varieties I'm growing this upcoming season that I got from you are getting their real leaves starting two days ago. Didn't you just send me those seeds? Seems like yesterday.

I'll try again to get some pics tomorrow in the daylight.

Well, I WAS lucky but all that may change overnight. We are supposed to go down to maybe even just above freezing overnight, and my tomato patch us too long and tall to cover, so it might be over. I Am going to add water to all my earth boxes at 5am, it comes out of the tap at about 65 degrees, might help. It will warm up tomorrow to over 70F. Gotta get through the night.
