I think I’m going to have to lay off the nitrogen for a while on some plants. My Zapotec and Celebrity tomatoes are beginning to look a little blue, a sure sign of excess N. Also, the vine tips on the 1250 and the 1147 have really been reaching for the sky as the vine runs, which I recently learned was also a sign of excess N. You want to be careful to avoid excess nitrogen, because to much of it can cause fruit to abort, thus making it difficult for fruit to set on tomatoes and pumpkins alike.
We had just gotten an inch and a half of rain before the photo was taken.
