We call that suckering.The suckers will not have blooms,but you can put the suckers in water and they will get roots then plant them and they will have more tomatos than the plant you got the sucker from.

I pulled a sucker couple of days ago , on a Yellow Pear Tomato, we will see if I can get it to root. That would be nice. I only have two plants left in pots to move to the big garden box , they are both Black Krim Heirlooms. Picked my first patio tomato's today and have a nice amount of peppers that will be ready about Monday. Squash blooming too, looking to fill one more spot in the big box garden , but I already have four varieties of tomato and three diff pepper's any suggestions?

It'll help the tomatoes.

My squash are about 3-4 days from being ready. My harvest so far has only been radishes, one giant head of romaine lettuce and a handful of carrots and gypsy peppers.

Oh yeah, and about 5lbs of peas. My peas are just now blooming. I planted them early too. Oh well, I hope I get some. I've got good looking purple hull peas and sugar snaps going.

Oh yeah, and about 5lbs of peas. Snap peas? Pole style? Alaskan Snow White. They are an early blooming pea that can handle the frost. I wish I knew how to keep them from rusting so I could keep them for a couple of months, but I get about two good batches out them and then they stop producing fruit.

NE Bosque County...About 15 miles east of Meridian (the top of the hill country) and 50 miles southwest of Fort Worth. that's in the grand prairie...between the northern blackland prairie and western cross timbers....still gotta go south thru coryell and lampasas co. before you hit the edwards plateau or any uplifts...same ecologic area as fort worth...anything recommended for that area works for you.
