Tomato Contest 2012
The 2012 tomato contest is in high gear with a lot of enthusiasm from last year’s participants as well as from three tomato growers who are joining the competition for the first time. Welcome Mary Krenzke, Steve Bell and Carl Chavez to our contest.
Early reports from contestants about their plants are strongly positive – their plants are healthy and growing strong this early in the season some of their plants have fruit already. Last year, my competition tomatoes didn’t bear fruit until late July. The unusually hot weather this season must be the reason.
I am grooming four plants this year for competition: two Big Zac and two Delicious tomatoes which were grown from seeds out of my last year’s garden. As before, I am growing my competition tomatoes in half wine barrel containers with my special soil mix.
My garden as of June 3.
