I picked the ripe cherry toms for a friend. A single one had split from variation in water levels which isn’t too bad considering the size and quality of the pots and the number of times they wilted.

I nicked a few accidentally with the thread clippers I was using to cut them. And I cut off a sprig of large red ones only to see a whole spray of tiny budding green ones at the end of it. Well, those will never ripen now.

I piled them all into a washed recyclable container and they’re so heavy for their size.

There are more green ones coming.

The zucchini still have mildew and are looking sad but new leaves and fruit are struggling up.

I feel kind of disappointed because the plants I have aren’t yielding anywhere near enough to help supply a food pantry.
