Default Mid-season report from the Tomato Patch

Okay, folks, while it's too hot to hang out in the garden, let's hear
the lowdown on what is happening in your tomato patch.


I have a very small garden. Planted 12 Mortgage Lifter seeds on April 19.
All 12 sprouted, 11 lived. Presently picking some cat-faced maters in the
3" range for green frying. Lots of fruit in the 1-2" range. VERY sturdy
vine ... I trellis so having a sturdy vine is a plus.

The seed packet said 2 1/2# to 4# tomatoes. Is this a reasonable thing to
hope for or just seed-packet hype?
