I have been going to visit my tomato plants every few days. We've had some good rains lately so I haven't needed to go water every day. During that really hot spell a couple weeks ago the water was off at the community garden, but my plants fared pretty well. The ground cloth retains moisture pretty well.
I went by one day this past week and watered, and picked my first tomatoes, which I ate on the spot. There will be a lot more coming on next week, I expect. I do have the best looking plants up there at this point, although I'm still well behind the curve in terms of production.
The container garden at home still looks pretty good. I slacked off on the watering and lost a few things, and some damn deer came by one night and finished off a couple others, but considering that it's August, I think things are looking pretty good.

Beautiful plants! I wish I had a green thumb, but I definitely do not. And there are few things better than homegrown tomatoes.
