What’s that? Could it possibly be that the tomatoes are trying to ripen? Thank goodness… the garden has been such a write off this year that we were beginning to think we wouldn’t get any harvest other than some early spinach, lettuce and, so far, ONE zucchini. Â FYI – yes, that is red mulch you see at the bottom of the photo. Â Who knows if it helps, but, on the West Coast, tomatoes need all the help they can get… tomorrow I will be sacrificing some slugs to Mother Nature…
Plant: Siletz Organic Tomato Seeds purchased at:Â West Coast Seeds (and started indoors in March).
On an unrelated note, these little guys (one seen here doing a nice job of pollinating an everbearing strawberry) look like baby bees. Â Are they? Â They also love the cilantro that I have let go to flower. Â I will have to send this shot to my Dad for identification.
