Experimenting with this tomato to see how strong the stem attachment is, wondering if it can actually hold it's own weight without any help of a sling or hammock,maybe I'll end up with tomato sauce or paste if it fails the test,lol it's around 10 lbs I believe and still doing good.

Biggest of my second planting, I'd made a mistake with the second planting so they didn't do as good,always learning something.

This is for the eggplant photo, I only grew one plant from the exotic seed exchange, I've never grown them before so I had no idea what I was doing so it was a real surprise to have it be of WR weight.

Just a little beet,I only grew one and it was in a very shaded spot so it struggled to survive, maybe next year I'll try a little harder.
