How are your tomatoes going?

Hello everyone, Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.

 

I came back from WA at the end of September and found that I had a tomato already growing.

 

It must have self seeded, as it is a different variety of what I had planted in this spot.

 

It was lying along the ground and after propping up and regular feeding and watering this is the results.

 

I have never been able to get any ripe tomatoes before Xmas before.

 

I have now pruned the dry leaves off and it is loaded with fruit. 

 

Cheers 🍻 @bergs

Re: How's Your Tomatoes Going

Hi @bergs,

 

What a great surprise to come back to a thriving tomato plant! 

 

It’s amazing how resilient and opportunistic these plants can be, especially when they self-seed. The fact that you’ve managed to get near-ripe tomatoes before Christmas is a fantastic accomplishment.

 

Looks like you're in for a bumper harvest.

 

Thank you for sharing and a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well.

 

Jacob
