It was a beautiful warm and sunny day today. I finally got the tomatoes in. That was my project before dinner after having been in the garden all day. The two Early Girl II plants already have tomatoes on them. I wanted to get the larger plants for the Champions, but they didn’t have any. The cages are installed also. I added additional compost to the westernmost row of tomatoes since those always seem not to do well.
