Our 2010 giant tomato growing contest has begun. It's time for the contestants to prepare their tomato garden and get those plants in the ground. The frost is over. Sign-up for this competition, which is by invitation only, is open through end of May.
I have four heirloom tomatoes which I have grown from seeds that are now in my vegetable garden. In late March, I planted the seedlings in half wine barrels with my special soil mix. with the right growing conditions include weather, soil and proper watering I am expecting to harvest big and tasty tomatoes. It's astonishing how good a homewgrown tomato taste. Even if I don't win this contest I will enjoy eating my harvest. They are not just good. They are also very nutritious.
Contestants are invited to write about their garden, and any experiences they can share that may be helpful to others to improve their garden. Don't forget to send photos and I will publish them in our blog.
