All the miracle grow that been falling is doing wonders for the gardens. My plants are bigger than they have been in several years.

Never seen one that big before, but even more shocking is how early in the year it is and it's already that big. Mine are all about two feet tall and just starting to show the tomatoes forming.

On a side note, we have been dumping the shavings from the chicken house around a big oak tree in the garden and there are tons of tomatoes growing there now, along with a dozen other veggies. We're calling it our oak tree garden, and what grows there is all from the chickens. So far, that area is way ahead of everything we bought and planted, along with the seeds we started over the winter and planted last month.

Get you some Spinosad concentrate for a large area (need a pump up sprayer) Or for a tiny garden, I thick it is called "Captain Jacks bug juice w/ Spinosad" (not sure if that's the correct name, but close) at Lowes.

How about sharing a little more info for us tomato growers with their jaws on the ground.
1. when did you plant it in ground?
2. did you get it going in a greenhouse?
3. was it just a storebought plant or is it from seed?

I'm a newbie to this. I planted a single plant as I'm the only one in the house that eats them. I also planted a squash plant. The tomato plant is about 2 ft high and blooming. The squash is 10-12 inches high and putting on blooms. Should I fertilize or feed them?
