Dang, that's looking good. Whereabouts are you located roughly? We should be able to start planting peas and such next week if it doesn't snow. Looks like you're about three months ahead of us.

I'm in south central Texas. We have to get a good early start,usually it gets burnt up the first week of July.Northern gardens last long after mine is gone!

Looks like 2014 tomatoes are moving along Snuffy. Won't be long. Guess you can get 2 crops in one year.

Fall gardens can be great here,veggies mature in cooler weather,better flavor.Some problems.If a person feels like getting out there in blazing August,fighting the grasshoppers in a drouth year,constant watering to get everything going.But I try!Kinda hit and miss on tomatoes,had a lot more misses. snuffy

I used to grow tomatoes as a perrenial here. Just whack the bush back in the fall and it starts regrowing at once. Tomato's for 11 months. I really wanna get back to growing more veggies but new job takes many hours.

Snuffy I love seeing your garden bloom as everything is still dormant here. Gives me inspiration. The pic of your grandson with the carrots is a classic Bill

As good as it looks, I don't believe I'd want to deal with your heat and humidity in exchange for early tomatoes. But then, I spend most of my days from November to March (sometimes sooner, sometimes later) wearing insulated Carrharts. Looking forward to more pictures. Russ

It is aggravating to see petrified logs being used as borders. The garden is a beauty. Next year you should have the RTH dig it for you. Imagine the depth of broken ground with 5000 people.
