Is Fall Here?

The days seem a lot shorter and the weather has cooled down in the last two weeks. Normally, I would be rejoicing the lower humidity and milder temperatures, but our babies need sun! We got a late start on our planting so that is also a concern.

The tomato plants have definitely slowed down their growth and the tomatoes seem to have slowed in getting bigger.

Another thing that we noticed is that the tomatoes aren't getting that big and tend to have thin skins; a number of the fruits have split. Reading up on the Sweet 100s, seems like thin skins is a characteristic of that variety, but we are also concerned about over-watering.
Tomato Burst?
