    If your tomatoes drop in production like that, it is usually a calcium deficiency in the soil. Once the calcium is used up on the first round of tomatoes the plant isn’t able to produce the next round. Could be too many “sucker” branches as well.

    About your tomato plants- make sure the tomatoes you plant are indeterminate plants and not determinate! Determinate means you’ll get one big harvest all at once, and indeterminate will continually produce over the season. ☺️

    I had a very similar experience with my tomatoes. And I had peppers until we had an early frost in late October. My peppers were beautiful and also market size and quality. I do container and raised bed gardening so I thought it was my soil quality but the vloggers that I follow from across the US and local friends all had similar experiences, regardless of their type of garden.

    We used manure in our garden when I was growing up, and the tomatoes were amazing! They would knock over the tomato cages. I would go out at lunch with a peck basket, fill it, pick the 6 best tomatoes, cut them in half, salt generously-more than I would now!- and eat them still warm from the sun with a Dr Pepper … which I don’t drink anymore but loved then. One of my best childhood memories. I shudder to think what six large organic tomatoes would cost to buy, and they wouldn’t be as good

    Victor is becoming quite a lively baby. I loved the garments you showed us that you've found for yourself recently. Classic styles. Using leftover bread pieces to make breadcrumbs is a good idea. We keep a jar with leftover pasta pieces for adding to soups. Good to see someone enjoying the porch swing. Some parts of the country had a bumper crop of tomatoes. It always changes.

    What happens if you don't rinse basmati rice?
    If the grains aren't washed before cooking, this residual starch will gelatinize in the hot cooking water and make the cooked grains of rice stick to each other. In some instances, such as sticky rice varieties like glutinous rice and arborio rice, this can lead to a very gummy texture

    I moved from Pa to Mo . And found tomatoes never did as good here . Tomatoes need cool nights to set fruit and I believe that is why they don’t produce as much . Did you ever see how they start producing in fall when the nights cool down but then don’t have time to mature. The Mennonite produce farmers here have there tomatoes on drip water . I believe that helps they need a steady supply of water not to much an not to little, I lay a soaker hose along the roots of mine then mulch them with a thick layer of straw , that helps keep the roots cool and evenly moist . It helps .
