May 28 update

Today at the farm I finished installing T-posts and caught up the twining.   So the farm garden is "caught up".!   Some of the plants in the rows 4 and up had flopped over already but rows 1-3 are ok. Plants in rows 1-2 are about 3 feet high.   Fruit set is happening, and I can already see purple on some of the F3s.  The IR plant already has an intensely purple fruit.

Backyard garden : tomatoes about 4 ft + and growing fast.  No signs of disease.  Fruit set on Flamme, HC, Sun Gold.  The Uluru Ochre plant will prob be last to set fruit.  Interestingly these were sowed about 1 week later in March than i sowed the same types this time last year but transplanted on the same date (April 16).  They are about a foot shorter than last year which must be due to the 1 week later sowing date.  I'm watching closely for signs of disease or wilt, since that started in the first week of June last year.
