Tons of green ones on my 5' tall survivor. I ended up having 48 of my 52 plants survive. I found about 10 of my big pink ones ripe today, but all were either soft spotted, rotten, or partially eaten. There are some cherry tomatoes ready but those are the girl child's department. I have about half of the patch weeded, but that just means I have half to go....

Three ripe ones so far and a ton of green ones. Cucumbers or is that Qcumbers, are coming in and a few beans and okra. We have more kale than we can eat. We probably have it 5 nights a week. Not tired of it yet

My tomatoes seem stunted in general and have curled leaves (not wilted and not turning yellow). The leaves curl upward. They are not setting on fruit very well either. Anyone seen that before, know what causes it?

I don't know if water is a cause of leaf curl, but I do water the garden with the lawn irrigation. It could well be the problem, as I know tomatoes really only need to be watered when they begin to show signs of stress, such as a bit of wilting.
Then again, this is the first time I've seen it and have been watering about the same for several years.

My plants are starting to bush out pretty good and I'm seeing blooms popping out every day.
With as late as I planted, I should have some for the get together Labor Day Weekend.

I'm near South Bend so behind southern IN for gardening, and got a little later start than usual because of cool weather in May. My tomatoes are setting fruit but nothing bigger than a quarter right now.
Cukes are flowering, chilis (jalapeno, super chili and cayenne) are doing well, eggplant is slow, pole beans about head high.

The cherry tomatoes are getting close to red, but the standard tomatoes are about the same size. Late this year do to late cold weather plus new raised garden beds.

Because of the substantial amount of rain one word comes to mind: spindly

I have been picking since Memorial Weekend. My first garden tomato was a week ago. First sweet corn picking was last week.
