What did you do in the garden today?

Last year I had sunscald and blossom end rot. This year I have sunscald and soldier beetle damage. I plant 60 tomato plants because I can't get full, good tomatoes, so I need a LOT of them.

I got about 1/100th of the garden done because of the heat. Got 2 pumpkins and 2 spaghetti squash. I have more fruit starting on the rest so hopefully I will have enough to make plenty of pumpkin bread.

In other tomato news, this is my last time trying Black Krim. They just do not do well for me. This is the 4th time I've grown them, and each time I've gotten 3-4 tomatoes total from 6 plants. Sigh.

I’m wondering how on earth is there a banana pepper in my bell pepper bed when all the seeds where bell pepper seeds…. I don’t eat banana peppers so a seed couldn’t of fallen in lol

I will remember not to get any of the black krim tomato seeds. I don't like wasting my time and money on stuff that doesn't make me happy.

I would think that there were banana peppers being seeded for packing and one seed got away. I planted 3 packs of zucchini seeds and got nothing but yellow squash last year.

Don't go just by my experience with Black Krim. Some people have GREAT luck with them. Not I.

I choose to rely on what others have had success with. I have had success with cherry tomatoes and this year a beefsteak tomato at least produced some tomatoes. Not big enough to be called beefsteak but I will take it. I also haven't had success with Roma tomatoes but I had success with the San Marzano tomato this year. I'm considering going with some deterninate tomatoes just to be able to get some canned.

There’s two plants that are growing banana peppers though lol it’s like the chocolate mint and orange mint seeds that was catnip I bought or the hydrangea seeds I bought that were celery seeds…. More scams then ever it seems
