I still have tomatoes.
These are black plum tomatoes.

I'm jealous! We LOVE home grown tomatoes and my tomatoes were done a while back. Now they've had a hard frost and only brown stems are left! I would love to live somewhere where I could grow plants outdoors year round. Go have a salad for me!

It looks like you have a bumper crop. Do you make sauce, or eat them in salads?
Happy GTS,
Aiyana

Show off! I am jealous! Do you get a frost there, or not? What zone are you in?

Angie,
I love tomatoes. It's almost time to take them out but they are still getting ripe so I keep putting it off.
Aiyana,
Today my husband and I picked most of them and we put them in our smoker and then dried them. We also make sauce, soup, put them and salads and eat them right off the vine.
Muum,
Some years we get frost but we rarely get a hard frost. Last year was unusual, we had about 10 nights in a row of hard frost temps. I lost a lot of plants but a lot came back. I live somewhere between zone 15 and 16.

Lucky you! My tomato plants were pulled up in October, and I harvested half a bushel of green tomatoes. They're in the basement in brown paper bags ripening. Unfortunately they rot almost as fast as they ripen.
Happy GTS!

I have tomatoes...two...two tomatoes growing on my bushes. I'm hoping I didn't buy the cherry tomato seeds..did I or didn't I?

Black plum was one of my favorites last year. I have two plants of it this year and am anxiously awaiting them to start fruiting! :) YUM!

I have tomatoes, too, but they look NOTHING like yours! Congrats :-)

Oh those look good especially since it is -6F outside. What exactly is a smoker? That sounds interesting.

Sarah,
Have you ever made anything with green tomatoes? I made relish once and never ate it so now I just compost them. Some of the half-way ripe ones I'll let ripen indoors, but I usually give up til next year.
Blueblue,
Enjoy those tomatoes, all two of them.
Misti,
Where are you that you just planted your tomatoes?
Nikkipolani,
Thank you.
Kate,
I don't think I've ever been in anything under 10F. Brrrrr.
A smoker is a big metal contaner that you put things in that you want to give a smoky flavor like salmon or cheese or Turkey or tomatoes.
You then add wood chips like apple wood and light them and let them smoke inside the metal container for a few hours until it penatrates whatever you have put in.

Good for you on the tomatoes. Ours were done producing in August, and I wish I had a good tomato right now. Happy GTS and thanks for sharing.

Oh, wow, Chigiy...yum! And you smoke them? Wow...wow...wow.
Like everyone else who has commented, I'm jealous. ;-)
