Jase, peppers do that. They grow slow but then will produce a good amount in the summer/early fall. Lowes has bird netting. Ok, good to know on the peppers. All this crazy weather probably hasn't helped them much. supposed to only be 55-60 on Thursday this week. Sheesh.

Tomatoes look great. What's in the box?

These patio tomatoes are mostly all meat with very little seeds and no hint of any acid at all but good flavor. I picked these on 4/28  This was 4/30 and I picked it with others today after we got home from Dallas.

bought plants from Lowes that were already big in cages with the tomatoes already set on the plants 6 weeks ago
9 dollars got me the pot, the cage,the plant and the soil....I don't see how they could sell them that cheap
I bought 5 of them....brought them all in the garage last night because of this cold and wind

I went to Lowes on March 31st and saw these patio plants that already had a few green tomatoes and I debated on getting them.We went back to pick up some other things and the ones I had looked at earlier was gone but they had another shipment of them so we picked out 2 and brought them home.They had a few tomatoes and lots of blooms but the tomatoes wern't near as big as the one in this pic. One thing i've learned about these patio plants is they don't take Texas full sun and they have to be watered twice a day per the instructions.After reading about other people that have them they keep them under some type of shade.I'll keep them watered but they better learn to adapt to this Texas weather.

yep...these are only taking about 6 hours of sun a day and they still have to be watered twice. Next year Im gonna cut out the bottoms and plant them in the soil
Whatever kind of soil isn't high quality and I add organic fertilizer once a week as Im sure its leeching out quick
But it has been nice to get tomatoes so fast/early in this crazy Dallas area weather this year

On mine the leaves have been wilting then turning brown and then I can crumble them in my hand.I was planning on a small garden this year but I have a few things to get finished inside the house.It's almost getting to late and we have a few plans for this summer.

How cold is it going to get tonight? Do we need to cover our plants?
