No use crying over spilled milk, if you catch my drift. Let's start talking about tomatoes here. I'm ready.

I'm on a lunch break and will add more categories later and try to make the font bigger.

I'll rake suggestions on topics we want.
I'm on mobile now and it's working good. Is anybody having problems?

Do y'all want me to kill the warrior?

I am good!

How are you going to let the crew know what you have done? Mish is killing all links.....

Hopefully word will get around through email.

So happy to be here. Thanks for letting me join. I missed you guys.

I've been spreading the word through Visitor's Messages on TV.

Hey Marsha! Got the msg on FB

Glad to be with my gardening family. Hate to see T-ville end. Old friends are already here.

Thanks for the note Nan! I'm happy!

Does this mean I won't go without your wonderful winter tomato picture journal?!?

I've been with most of you for years. I'll give this a try.

Me too! I am already dreading winter and cannot wait to get started in the new year.

The last three years have been very difficult with sick parents and this year was a disaster in every way, shape and form. Parents passed away, garden suffered while I was distracted with hospital and hospice, etc. I am desperate to throw myself into making things grow this year.

I was decimated by the tomato russet mite again last year after getting a handle on it in 2018. This year I am going to try the pot grower solution: planting small flowers with each tomato seedling in the Earthboxes and using predatory mite Amblyseius andersoni. Apparently the combination of the two works well.

My biggest problem is whittling down the grow list to a manageable size. This year I will start using the raised beds in my back garden, and that will increase my grow space significantly, but I still need more dirt.

Abamectin works great on TRMs, been using it since last year. Wettable powdered sulfur as a spray does too.(sulfur is considered organic)

I'm here
