This year, I am testing the
Topsy Turvy tomato planter. You may have seen them around your own neigborhoods. I planted one tomato plant in the upside down planter, and another in my regular garden beds. The race is on! The plants have been planted for about a month and a half now. Growth wise, the garden bed plant is winning by a long shot. The plant has grown much bigger than the tomato cage its supported by. It has a lot of flowers, but no actual visible tomatoes, as of yesterday. The Topsy Turvy plant is much smaller. It hangs upside down, but has started to turn up. But on Saturday, I noticed THREE small baby tomatoes!!! So now the test is really getting interesting. I figure the weight of the growing tomatoes will weigh the plant to grow more downward again. Who will win? Who will generate more fruit? I will keep everyone posted on my little experiment ;)
In keeping with the reflection theme (hehe), this was taken at my favorite place, Trillium Lake, up on Mt Hood. The water was like glass that day, and the fluffy clouds reflected like a perfect mirror.
So, is using "X-ing" as my "X" post for ABC Wednesday cheating? I think not. X-ing is the abbreviation for crossing (I've seen it on signs, such as train X-ing...).
