don't you have to use that before you actually plant the tomatos? I can't figure out how I'd get it around them at this stage. The plants are big and tall, otherwise looking very healthy. I'm just gonna be sitting here like this....:fl and hoping for the best.
I suppose you could put it down now but this may take some work. More cutting and placing I'd imagine.

Best of luck!

be patient Blurose, since you planted...they will come. I have quit a few green tomatoes forming on Early Girl and Siletz plants, and the Oregon Star is starting to set little fruits.

i chose plant varities from Territorial Seed, they seem to perform well in the PNW climate. did use Wall -O-Water this year also, which gave the plants a good head start.

I'm sure you will have tomtoes in August, or September.
Keep the faith.

I think I do that every year....think I'm never gonna get a mater! Why is it taking so long? All this bloom, all this bush, its so tall....where are the tomatoes???? Then, I blink my eyes and I'm overloaded with tomatoes, can't keep them picked before they rot, scrambling to wash jars and can them up. I get too busy to remember that I ever doubted! I found my self speculating this year also.... :rolleyes: I just went out and took a better look and found out that I'm going to be smothered in tomatoes!!! One day, barely there...the next, WADS of tomatoes!!! :th
