Most of the tomato plants are over the top of the cages except for 2. One Early Girl just didn't take off like the other 2 did. I need to till real bad as you can see.



This Early Girl has about 20 small green tomatoes on it so far.



These 2 Sweet 100's have hundreds of yellow flowers and quite a few marble size tomatoes.



I need to get some twine and prop up the branches that have gone through and are hanging near the ground so I can till in between the plants.



The hot banana and sweet banana peppers are coming in now. These won't quit producing until September or later if I keep them watered.



These peppers really put out a lot.



In about a month I'm going to rig up some kind of sun screen so that the tomatoes don't completely burn up by the middle of July. That's what usually happens in years past. I'm looking for canning jars to be on sale fairly soon. This will be my first attempt at canning. Franmarz gave me an old recipe for pickled banana peppers that are crunchy because you use alum.
