Great photo - I can almost smell those tomatoes!
I’m in awe of that bounteous crop - I haven’t had much luck with growing tomatoes myself, but the few I did get tasted so much more flavoursome, so I can imagine you enjoyed eating those!

My grandmother who lived in Memphis had a trick - she'd keep one prize tomato plant by the back door to her kitchen. When she finished a pot of coffee, she'd put the used coffee grounds on that plant. She swore it improved it. That plant always grew well - if you look it up, it's because tomatoes prefer acid soil.
My grandmothers were knowledgeable, but odd.
Just think of all FWR has learned this year - I personally am in awe!
