It seems we are all having troubles of one kind or another this year, hope you are able to get a decent amount of tomatoes, it's so hard to lose them when we spend so much time tending to those seedlings!<br />***<br />APG, back atcha!<br />***<br />Jane, I can't wait to hear about them and how they do, I'm thinking the blight resistant seed packets will sell out early next year since so many of us are having to start integrating them!<br />***<br />BeyondMyGarden, LOL, it went right into a German Potato Salad!<br />***<br />Thomas, my Hillbillies don't look like the photos either, the ones that do turn a nice red/orange swirl are rather small, and I have others that don't even look like the same tomato - they are large and all orange! They feel ripe so I pick them since I know if I left them on a few days longer "just to see" they would get insects!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-16620721665058763232011-07-04T14:17:21.612-04:002011-07-04T14:17:21.612-04:00I'm noticing blight on the lower leaves of som...I'm noticing blight on the lower leaves of some of my tomato plants a well. I pruned them off today but something tells me it's gonna spread. How do you like the Hillbillies? I grew them last year but I think I got bad seeds because they didn't look anything like a true Hillbilly.Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09303344546714641616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-21486261135250586972011-07-04T14:13:58.945-04:002011-07-04T14:13:58.945-04:00Nice potato.

After two years of losing them all, I decided to try them. These plants really make me laugh, and I will need to do a post on them. At least you are getting some tomatoes, I know that is no consulation. Enjoy every bite.Jane @ Hard Work Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02905658082120445313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-67334767138516216102011-07-04T12:49:33.473-04:002011-07-04T12:49:33.473-04:00Happy 4th to you and yours too!Happy 4th to you and yours too!The Apple Pie Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10340020795649093810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5855162440022875977.post-85314585382898254442011-07-04T11:32:28.421-04:002011-07-04T11:32:28.421-04:00I have been following your blog and wanted to say ...I have been following your blog and wanted to say how much I enjoy reading it. I'm sorry that you are having problems with insects and disease. I too am trimming tomato leaves.
