Looks great! I'm always amazed at home the Turvy works to all ends of the spectrum. A friend has tried them 3 season now here in PA. Never had any luck.

Looks like you've got it! Love heirlooms....sliced on that sourdough looks great! Nice pics!

Nice, hard to beat a full flavored tomato. We picked some up some grape tomatoes at the farmers market yesterday.

I hate California's weather.

Tomatoes look great Ross, I still need to get mine out of the nursery containers - maybe I should go out and do that instead of reading & commenting on the forum.

Have a good couple of days off and cook some steaks.

Looks nice & tasty from here! Growing up, we always planted seeds in little boxes in March and nursed them until they could go out in the garden in May. How sweet it was to have them fresh off the vine until an autumn frost ended the season! I got a few 'Big Boy' plants from a local venue this year.. but no pictures yet as they're just in the blossoming stage. Bon appetite!

Thanks Kent, I cooked a Tri-Tip that I marinaded in orange juice and grape juice for two days. If it would have turned out great I would have posted it first :laugh:

Nice looking heirlooms not to mention your container garden. We do all our gardening in containers as well. We started out with five trash cans 10 years ago and now we are up to 48 container ranging from trash cans to stock tanks to feed buckets and an old gas grill. We had a great early crop of lettuce and cilantro and will be harvesting our first batch of tomatoes and peppers today. I think we'll follow AZRP's lead and get some fresh salsa going. Enjoy the nice sea breeze there in Ventura.

Wow, those look great. You are a long way ahead of us.
Here are a few of our boxes, three are Earth boxes and two are home made boxes. I made the table for lettuce and spinach as an experiment. Seemed to work well although some are starting to bolt.








We have been picking Cucumbers


Here are a few of the regular garden




The pole beans are starting to fight it out with the Zucchini.

Great looking plot...you probably have the same growing area as we do...we're just too old to bend over and pull weeds!
