One Tomato

[casey28]

My one and only beefsteak tomato! It's still growing and doing well, though it does have a "growth crack". I've read that it happens if the plant is dry and then gets too much water. It should be ok, it's already started to heal itself. :)

Be sure to post a photo once it's ripe!

It looks fantastic!! And you can cut out/around the growth crack no matter what! Doesn't affect the deliciousness ^-^

[casey28]

Thanks!! Good to know that I can cut around it and the tomato will be fine. :)

Beautiful. Smells probably a real tomato )))

[casey28]

Thanks. Yes, it very much has a tomato smell, both the tomato and the leaves. :)

WHEEEEEEE!!! He's beautiful! He would make a great fried green tomato sandwich! Or, later, just a good ol' fashioned 'Mater sammich! YUM! :D

Aww, thanks! Yum, both of these sound SO good! :D I've never actually had fried green tomatoes (but I do love the movie, lol).
