Nearly...

It's nearly time to pick our first outdoor tomatoes... Exciting!


There are still lots of discolouring leaves on the plants. Yellow ones, and ones with brown or black spots. It stopped for a bit in the very hot weather, but now it's spreading again. I have no idea what it is - I still don't think it looks like blight - so I can only cross my fingers and hope for the best...

The Hundreds and Thousands tomato plant has soooo many flowers and green fruits on it. I've counted up to eighty on a single branch!


If they all ripen at once I don't know what I'll do!

Really hope it isn't blight Naomi. Can you pick off the spotted leaves or are there too many? If it is a fungal problem picking off may help stop any spread.

I've been picking the worst ones off - maybe I should be more severe... I have a couple more plants coming up ready for later in the season so hopefully even if these plants go down, I'll have backups :)
