Today's harvest includes 14 back yard Husky Cherry Red, 14 Snow White, 11 Black Cherry, 9 front yard Husky Cherry Red, 8 Babywine, 6 Green Zebra(1), 6 White Currant, 6 Super Snow White, 5 front yard Green Grape, 4 Yellow Perfection, 4 Sweet 100, 3 Jaune Flamme, 2 White Zebra, 2 Husky Gold, 2 back yard Mexico (6 ounces, 9 ounces), 2 Jaune Coeur de Pigeon, Red Currant, Vintage Wine, Dr. Wyche's Yellow (10.5 ounces), a front yard Speckled Roman, Orange Blossom, Plum Tigris, Green Zebra(2), SunSugar and Red Grape for a total of 107 tomatoes.
The harvest totals reflect a Saturday “bump”. On Saturday I harvest later in the morning. There's a bit more time for the tomatoes to mature but more importantly, the sun is higher and there are less shadows. I simply see the tomatoes easier in higher light. The higher totals for some of the front yard tomatoes and the back yard Green Zebra(1) are a direct result of simply being able to see better in the higher sun.
The volunteer is in a growth spurt. It's nearly as tall as Marz Round Green. There are no tomatoes on either plant.
We are now ahead of my original harvest estimate for August of 2700 tomatoes (2778).
