Thank you. Look for the farmers markets. Why don't you grow your own? Living in an apt. is no excuse. They do just fine in pots. :-) Try sweet 100's for an overdose. lol 2 or 3 of those should fix you up! -- Peace! Om "My mother never saw the irony in calling me a Son of a bitch" -- Jack Nicholson |

I have gone to farmer's markets several times and found the tomatoes rot
quite quickly... I am well aware of container tomatoes, but do not wish to grow my own. Hence, my "ad." "OmManiPadmeOmelet" wrote in message ... In article t, wrote: I love tomatoes. A lot.

You can't stock up on food products that do not contain additives that act
as preservatives, and keep at room temperature for more than a few days. A little green may lengthen its useful life as food product. -- Jonny wrote in message k.net...

Please do not be embarrassed that you

Please do not be embarrassed that you:
1. Posted the question in the wrong NG to be understood - austin.food would have been more appropriate; what a shame that you made such an ass of yourself over there. 2. Fail to understand tomato cultivation in Austin and are unaware that quality cultivars stop producing once nighttime temps rise above a certain level in summer. Please stick to posting in your True Crime and Atlanta Braves groups, trollsem. wrote in message .net...

t... Cindy, His neighbors probably won't speak to him. -- Mike Harris Austin, TX ________________________ I take it you 'know' this guy? And here I was feeling sorry for him... Cindy He's a semi-troll, posting nonsense on Austin.food like "Austin can't support more than one CM because only one of my friends has ever shopped there." If he *really* wanted homegrown tomatoes he'd either grow them in a pot, frequent the farmers' markets, sign up for a community garden plot, or befriend a neighbor who gardens or who would "loan" him a plot - or any and all of the above. However, if he wanted to play the troll, he'd post an imperious demand on austin.gardening then get spitty and insulting as he shot down helpful ideas one by one. I'll leave the deciphering of his true motives as an exercise for the reader. G -- Mike Harris Austin, TX |
