Tomatos...

[chezmax]

Judging from the size of our plants and the number of flowers on them in our tomato garden, no, tomato jungle, we are soon going to have way more tomatos then we know what to do with. YAY!

The cherry tomatos growing on the one plant are already quite delicious. YAY!

Oh man, there is next to nothin' as tasty as a fresh tomato right out of your own garden =D I gotta find some way to grow some on my apt balcony....

If you end up with too many tomatoes, I will gladly help you eat them!!!! Mmm...bruschetta.

My pug LOVES to eat cherry tomatoes off the vine and I could just send him to run through your garden a few times and help you out, Max :)

I don't think I've ever heard of a dog that will eat tomatos, never mind pick them off the vine for me. :)

[chezmax]

I may take you up on that. :)

I've heard of quite a few. Christiaan's parents have a lab that runs over to their garden when they're not looking and eats them off the vine.

How many tomato plants did you plant??

[chezmax]

Umm. 7.

There's two cherry tomato plants, two yellow tomato plants, and I believe three plum tomato plants. :)

Sucker. we planted 3 cherry tomatoes (1 package), and they're out of control. I'd hate to have more ;)

[chezmax]

Of all the problems in the world to have, 'too many tomatoes' isn't a particularly bad one. The plum tomatoes will be used for delicious and tasty sauces (especially when combined with the basil jungle), and the cherry tomatoes make delicious snacks. I'm not sure about the yellow tomatoes. They're an experiment :)

Nosiree. Grocery store tomatoes make me sad now, and I spend the first half of the summer wishing the DAMN TOMATOES WOULD GROW ALREADY. :)

I hear they do well in salsa. Extra colour and all.

[phantasm13.livejournal.com]

LOL

Um for future reference next year you only need to plant one of each for you and Jay.

Oh my that will yield a lot of tomatoes... well have you thought about making salsa?

[phantasm13.livejournal.com]

Hehe Apparently my husband and I are on the same wave length.

My Mom and Dad do have an awesome salsa recipe if you are interested.

[chezmax]

I'm sure we have friends who would like fresh tomatoes. Really, having too many isn't a problem :)

[chezmax]

Maybe. I don't eat salsa that often.

Jeremy makes delicious pasta sauce though. Mmm.

[phantasm13.livejournal.com]

And you can freeze pasta sauce.

My Mom says you will be surprised at how many tomatoes you will get.

They accidentally planted about two more plants then what you did last year and despite her giving them to everyone who took a First aid class and all their friends they still had half the crop rot.
If she hadn't been in the car accident they would have made sauce and salsa out of them...
