I had that last year. A yellow Brandywine had ZERO flowers. I'm finding out that we have no bees around here and pollinating the flowers needs to be done manually to help things along.
So I find out about an electric toothbrush method which will vibrate the pollen from the flower by touching it with an electric toothbrush. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wyc17vDAyvk Very frustrating to get all those flowers and hardly any fruit. We'll see what happens. ________________________________ From: Paul Hill <[email protected]> To: ProFox Email List <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, July 29, 2013 2:48 PM Subject: Re: [OT] Bloody Mary Breakthrough!!!!

What remains is the beginning of a great drink. Haven't had a Bloody Mary for years.. What about Passata? That's pretty thick. My garden tomatoes this year are a bit of a failure this year. I bought a variety of funky tomato seeds (yellow, deep red/brown, long ones etc) and I have about 5 plants with no flowers and a single plant with a few small green toms. Last year I grew a 6 foot tall monster with 100s of cherry toms. The cucumbers & french beans are growing well though! -- Paul _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/CADwx0+Jchhgp051-m6dnrBUgU=znnv_7o1nerc+vtkdiknk...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
