How is everyone's garden doing? Or, if you haven't started planting yet, what do you plan on growing in your garden?

Nomnom tomatoes. What kind of tomatoes are they?

I've always wanted to grow tomatoes in my apartment. If I could, I'd eat tomatoes all the time.

Black Brandywines. I grew Cherokee Purples on my apartment walkway when I lived in an apartment - it grew in a five gallon bucket. It was an indeterminate type, so it only grew as large as the bucket would let it.

Cherokee Purples are *great* as container plants.

And the taste of those tomatoes makes you drool over the idea of them all year 'round. Such a perfect flavor.

Look into an Aero garden. They have cherry tomatoes you can grow in them year round, along with other veggies, herbs and flowers even. They're great for apartments!

I haven't heard about an Aero garden before, but I'll take a look!

Oh wow, they're kind of pricey.

[dantesspirit]

Yeah, they can be. But if you sign up for their newsletter, a lot of times they have a coupon code and deep discounts.

Ooo, that is a good point. I'll take a closer look at the website and the various gardens.
