It's supposed to be high tomato season but all I've got are green golf balls.


A farmer at the Takoma Park Farmers Market told me last Sunday that I probably over-fed my plants in the spring. I did add a topping of compost to all my plants, and they all got nice and leafy and produced lots of flowers. All seemed well. But I've noticed that not many fruit have appeared even though there are many flowers. So now I know. Next year I'll put the seedlings into the ground with no added food.
