Yes sir, they are. With my luck, just before they are ready to pick, they'll be attacked by killer tomato worms!

We planted tomatoes in pots and 3 Topsy turvey's. Have had several already from both and they seem to taste the same. Have a bunch of cherry tomatoes getting close in the upside down planters. We also planted some red peppers and a bunch of peas,which have already been eaten and some cucumbers that are getting nice. This next year we will plant a bigger garden, that is if I am still around to make this happen. The peas were just awesome. Even the dog loved them.

I don't think so - I'm watering their butt, not their head.
The leaves still look crappy, but I found 3 more teeny, tiny new ones coming on. Guess I'll have a few more before the first frost.

Mine is turning red and they are beefsteak variety and about the size of a quarter. I haven't watered them and they are on a hill. Working on a good garden spot for next year. This year I just planted some stuff on the hill where we have the trailer.

Not as good as I hoped, but not bad. We had a bunch of them set on, ripen and then nothing for a while. The plants look like crap, but I've suddenly got 10 more new ones coming on. Hope they make it.
