I've grown Gardeners Delight again this year. In pots against a South
facing wall in Derbyshire. We have no greenhouse; but the tomatoes have
traditionally done really well outside. This year's crop has been an
unmitigated disaster!! Have tomatoes on all 7 plants and the first one is
only just starting to turn. They have all been small with very few fruits.
Perhaps its just natures way of telling me now to be complacent and expect
too much.

I'm the least likely member of this group to discuss food growing but has
anyone else noticed that tomatoes are watery and flavourless this year?
Our
are grown in large pots in a mix of soil and compost, in a large glass
house. Each year, until this one, they have tasted sublime. This year
they
ripened late, cropped poorly and taste of nothing much at all. ;-(
