| I know, my spacing is not optimal and too close, but I had to work with the space I had.
The super sweet 100s are starting to trickle in. I think in a few weeks I'm going to be drowning in cherry tomatoes.
Got a few nice looking brandywines. Can't wait for them to ripen so I can try them out.
Big Beef, also covered in fruit
The early girl's hiding a lot of her fruit, but got several toms from her already.

| That looks GREAT and I love the cement block Basil holders which act as an edging and keep the weeds down! Lucky you to have some red ones. Mine are all green. Linda |

| It looks great! Is your bed 4'x4' or 4'x2'? My husband were just at Home Depot and I was pointing out the cement blocks and describing to him how I wanted to use them to make a new garden bed. And here I get home and you posted this picture. Thanks for making it easy to show him exactly what I was talking about. :) |

| Thanks :) I love the cinderblocks for raised beds. They were easy to put together and have worked great. I used the holes for various herbs, some onions, and flowers. Kathy, the tomato bed is ~2' by 5'. Here's another cinderblock bed, this one's being used for eggplants and peppers.
And this one I built in the alley on a little strip we had in front of the hedge. It used to be all weeds there, so I put it to good use for root veggies.
