Since we don't have enough room in our back yard to have a garden we decided to plant some squash and tomatoes in containers and see how they would do. I think I like container gardening, and will do it on a larger scale next year. We are supporting the tomatoes with 6' bamboo sticks, it is hard to see in the photo but the 2nd one from the right an early goliath tomato is now taller than the stick. The one on the right a sugar plum tomato is almost as tall. The one on the left is a beefmaster and is starting to take off with the warmer weather we had. The second from the left is a bush early girl. Then we have 2 yellow squash and 2 zucchini plants. I am surprised that they are doing so well with all of the cold weather we have been having. We have only had a couple of days in the 80's.
This is a close up of the tomatoes on the early goliath. The biggest is almost tennis ball size. Now if they would only turn red!

Really Cool George!
It looks really nice!!! Your tomatoes are putting their energy where they are suppossed to: tomatoes . . . . mine seem to be putting it all into the vine, and very few tomatoes! my vines are almost as tall as me! but hardly any fruit :(
