I was on the phone with my friend Regina yesterday and we were talking tomatoes. It seems we are both having the same problem with them – before they ripen they are turning dark on the bottom and rotting! What causes this – any remedies?
Here is an example of one of my Roma tomatoes and you can see the one right below it is turning the same way. I have managed to get some to ripen but only if I pick them before this happens and put them on the window sill to ripen.
Any ideas on what is wrong with our tomatoes?
I got done with the corner of Joseph’s Coat yesterday morning and got it cranked down a little bit – that first row took just under 9 hours to quilt! At this rate the close to 200 hours it will most likely take to quilt it sounds like a good estimate – maybe high but I’m not going to push it. I am outside a lot when the weather is nice. I don’t imagine I will get a lot done on this the next several months.
My crinum bulbs (I think that is how you spell them – could be wrong) are opening – a lovely light pink with the darker pink stripe inside. They are pretty. A little early this year I think, normally they do not open until closer to July I think.
