My cherry toms (sweet 100 and an unknown 'grape' cluster cherry) are
now starting to be covered with tiny fruit, and are still growing like

Soilsoup brewing, I'm going to drench everything on Monday when it's
ripe.

I find my tomatoes are not setting up because of all the cloud cover
we've been having. I adore this weather, but it is going to get very
hot all at once and if night temps stay above 75 degrees, no fruit
will set.

I did try a new variety heirloom this year called 'Mexico.' I bought
a few plants at "Gardens" on 38th street. It may be wishful thinking
on my part that being called "Mexico" will indicate it will set fruit
in the heat.

The ONLY thing I miss about living in New York are my 'Brandywine'
tomatoes.

Question: What are you calling "Soilsoup?"


Looks like a copyrighted name for aerated compost tea:
