Calling all Tomato growers

[Mossy]

We have been hit by a storm belt......high wind and torrential rain..most days for over a week...

Every thing has storm damage..but survives.

The tomatoes hiding down the side of the pot are ripening..

The high wind hit the chillies to.. literally blacked the leaves overnight on the windward side ......

But they survived........

And.. the cucumbers seem to enjoy cuddling up to the canna... happy companions.............for now....

And.........how was your week.........?.....

Nice to see your gardens, even with the rainy weather and crazy storms. Plants sure are hardy.
I wanted to post some updated pics. It’s only half the garden. We got a new pup on Father’s Day and she wouldn’t stop eating leaves. I’ll try to get the rest of the garden up soon.
Tomato aisle. They more than doubled in the last week with the hot weather.

Got our first fruit. Lots of flowers too now.

Potato row

Baby corns. I just planted some pole beans next to each one.

Watermelon and acorn squash

Late peas

Just transplanted cucumbers

This rhubarb is going wild. Check out the size of these leaves (never grown rhubarb before, my parents dug theirs out and brought it over.

Also the puppy with our big boy.

Thank you for the points @Mozzy & @Mossy

Here’s the rest of the garden. Strawberries, peas and a nasturtium taking over

Red Russian kale and spinach I’m going to collect seeds from. Plus the carrots, zucchini, and a tomatillo.

Another zucchini, onions, and arugula that’s flowering.

Sweet peppers looking good after transplant. Been picking off buds to focus on root growth. Some cukes and onions too.

Some hot peppers, lots of lettuce and the cukes I planted May 15 are finally taking off. There is also a Thai basil in the middle.

Blueberries, two types of lavender and daisies. I love the different colors in the garden.

Blueberries in the back are ripening, though most of them are still on the tart side.

Potted tomatoes and I just potted up the last zucchini yesterday. The potted tomatoes have slowed down recently. Probably my sporadic watering.

That’s all for now. Happy Monday everyone.

Looking good! Love the variety...my environment is not conducive to growing much these days but a goal is to get an acre+ in the PNW someday, so your garden gives me hope for the future. Happy Monday

Thanks mozzy. This is our first year here, but so far it seems great for growing.

Wow guys you are all doing great Now I have some bad news for my tomato plants , I will be chopping them out , I can no longer stand the Assistant Manager at work , He is here till November so I am not putting up with him and his laziness and lies , So time to open a new door .
@KIS Thank you , you have just confirmed the reason - way to much - I recon soil building should be taught at schools every where , then people will have a way better understand of eco systems and then they will understand why is so important to our planet .
