I think this is the start of the very first tomato and I’m so unreasonably excited I managed to get from seeds to a tomato growing oh my god! It’s so tiny still! But it’s there!

    Haha I am doing the same thing! First garden, I have tomatoes, zuchini, and beans and every morning I am running outside like it is Christmas. There are like 100 flowers on the zuch but so far nothing and I am like “C’MON!”

    Looks like you got one tho!

      The first year I planted watermelon I got a vine like 25 feet long and 4 melons that averaged 20 pounds. The next year I didn’t do anything new, got a vine over 30 feet, 1 melon that rotted on the vine.

      Really opens the eyes on pollinators. At least with pumpkins if I get up early enough I can manually pollinate.
