57 Tomatoes (Plants, that is)

Dearest husband asked me how many tomato plants I actually have in the ground...... I asked if those in pots count and we agreed that they do.  Well, I officially have 57 tomato plants planted!  Yes, that is  a rather large number for a home garden!  However, with this cool start to the summer I may not get that swamped with those luscious red orbs.... yet one can only wish to have such a problem!

This afternoon I'll give them another dose of bone meal.  Make sure to water the soil first then two tablespoons at each plant  (114 tablespoons???  I'd better check how much I have).  The bone meal will give them a boost to blossom and set fruit.  Make sure to fertilize every week now going into the heavy production time of year.

I have lots of kale to harvest for salads.  Yummmm
