Ok, so what you can’t see in this amazing pile of growing tomato plant is that the first thing we did was put a old metal end table frame around the plant, so that it could grow up and over the sides.. that worked for awhile and helped protect the plant but it would not stop growing and so we ended up also adding in a three foot high old wire gate that we had taken down (but of course not thrown away as it could be reused at some point and in some way and then hubby braced it.. it may not look great but it provided an extra couple feet of grow space.. If this plant was upright correctly, I am sure it would currently be at least five plus feet high.. and it’s loaded! We have been picking red tomato’s off it, and he has a tons of big green ones, dozens of smaller ones and its still blooming.. I will be giving it a cover to help it move along for a good while into the fall..




LOL! Your compost volunteer looks to be the same size as mine; ) but, because it grew under the PeeGee, I can’t get it up out of the dog’s reach… (He’s had more of the darned things than I have): It has 20 clusters of 8 cherries (so far, at least). Thinking maybe it’s time to pinch back the tips so it can focus on fruit production instead of more growth.
Oh hey! I meant to ask if you had any guesses as to its heritage, yet?
Amish paste tomato.. I am pretty sure..
