The first Mr. Stripey's and corn tassels!!!

Went out to check the corn, and we are at a new stage....the plants have made tassels. Is that the right name for them?? No ears yet, but should be soon.  Corn has been a lot of fun to watch.  The first two Mr.S tomatoes are shown here...finally tomato production is underway!!!

  3. Looks great! SAM and I were just talking the other day about wouldn't it be nice to live in a part of Florida that isn't so darn cold in winter!

  4. YAY! It's always so satisfying to see your food grow....haven't had the opportunity in a long, long time but I still remember it. Mind you, I do have my potted chili plants so they'd count, wouldn't they? I do love to see them flowering and then bearing chillies.

  6. We were getting snow/mist earlier tonite and expecting more on Saturday. Nice to see something green and growing.
    Your corn looks great in the buckets, if i tried that they'd all fall over. I don't know if i could do tomatoes in a bucket in the house or not. I'd have to grow from seed cause nobody would have any plants around here to even try it.
    I admire your ambition. I get tired of hearing folks say "i have no room to grow anything". I'd love to just show them what you have done.
