Harvested Stupice Tomatoes!


Okay, this harvest isn't so sad. This morning's haul includes 19 Red Currants (reaching over 1700 for the year), 6 Husky Cherry Reds, 2 Piccolos, 2 Salisaw Cafes, 2 Thessalonikis (one six ounces), 2 Paul Robesons (one seven ounces), 2 Prairie Fires, a Lime Green Salad, Green Grape, a half pound Black From Tula, Kimberly, Sioux, Cherokee Chocolate, Zhezha (front yard) and a new one, 4 Stupice tomatoes!

We have had our largest “mid-size” tomato haul to date, seven. That's not a lot, of course, but at least it looks as if the tide is still coming in.

The seven ounce Paul Robeson is a beautiful looking tomato, a deep reddish brown color.

Last night I added some paper mulch in a few spots. Also, I used tomato tape on the front yard tomato plants until I ran out.

The weather hasn't been too bad, either. Mid 90's most days, but not the intense heat of a few weeks ago.
