I believe they MIGHT be gone for the year. I say might because in Southern states 2 generations are possible. The flying bugs I posted are the ones that lay the eggs. The eggs are little brown disk shaped single egg that is attached to the lower part of the stem by the flying bugs, keep a sharp eye out for the eggs and the flying bugs. Remove those and you will remove the worm from hatcing and digging into the stem. They sell some netting that will keep the flying bugs from landing on the squash. If you use sevin be prepared to manually pollinate since it will kill bees also.

Very nice...I have some eggplants growing, but nothing like yours...

They are the Japanese variety. They are supposed to be picked at about 4 inches long. Gonna grill some tonight and see how they taste.

Awsome

dang frank. we buds right those look awesome

Been meaning to post this up.

Went to see a guy's tomatoes that my grandpa is always raving about. They are on the right in the picture below.

Each plant is about 7 FEET TALL



George (grower of these tomatoes) has a "secret technique" he uses. He said, on average, he'll pick about 200-250 lbs. of tomatoes every other day.

These suckers are massive.

Wow!

I was going to put up the one of my wife being dwarfed by it. But then I remembered this is the TFF, and that probably isn't a good idea

Yeah, you're probably right...

Thanks for not posting your ugly mug on here...

Most tomato plants (indeterminate) get 7' tall or bigger but those things look bushy.
Whats the secret???

Cloning

Any one clone? LSS talking about getting a second crop going got me thinking of cloning. All ways clone your best plants.
