It IS weird, how one plant will take off & leave the others behind (my

cucumbers) and sometimes all will do well except e.g.your big

contrarian.

And they say plants have no personalities!

So you've had a healthy looking plant not bear anything sometimes? I

don't plant much and only tomatoes this year. First time I have seen

this happen. I keep expecting one day for it to have a whole bunch of

tomatoes, but it is August and still not one... It would make more sense

if the plant right next to it wasn't bearing anything too, but it is.

Or, there was something about the exact spot that the pollinators are

avoiding, but it's same spot I had one last year that also grew huge and

bore many fruit.

This isn't directly relevant to your huge, egotistical outlier g but I noticed you planted same veg in same spot as last year. I understood it's preferable to rotate to different areas each year. Avoid possible ? bad stuff in soil and possibly depleted ? good stuff for given plant.

Very vague,but does anybody know what I'm talking about? Agree/disagree? Fill in question marks?
