Congrats on a year of posting!

 

It's in water, but it's still gardening! One of my hardy lilies has put up a gorgeous flower. I love seeing it open in the morning and close at night.

I hope so as well! Good luck on the tomatoes and also the other stuff!

Aw, that sucks. Last year a big rain caused this in a third of my roma tomatoes, I was so sad.
I'm now the proud owner and user of a calcium spray to try and prevent this.

My garden is doing well! I expanded the actual growing space this year at the cost of not growing as much as last summer. I'll start reaping the benefits in the fall though! I've got some green tomatoes growing, a new round of lettuces, and I've been harvesting some short day onions that have started flopping over. My cabbage heads are forming nicely, and I seem to have the aphids under control. It seems like the entire Pacific Northwest is suffering an aphid epidemic this year, UGH.

Do you think this could be Sapote?

I'll give it a shot. I'm running a Lemmy instance and (new!) a Piefed instance, I'll try it with both!
