first green tomatoes
Lately I've been reading more about local varieties of vegetables and how important it is to select the varieties that are known to do well in your area. I now have five different varieties of tomato plants growing, and interestingly, one variety already has fruit while the others are still only flowering. I have much to learn, and have started taking better notes in a gardening notebook. For example, one variety of tomato plant is already about 2 meters tall, but has very few flowers. Another variety is about a meter tall and already has green fruit. It will be interesting to see which eventually produces more, which takes up the most space, which tastes better, etc.
