Tomato Theft!
So much for the little tomatoes that were looking promising on the two plants I've been having problems with. Both plants have been stripped of the tomatoes. I don't know if it was someone or something. They're just gone. All the little tomatoes from the ones at the very top of the plants to the ones at the bottom look like they were broken (or cut) clean off. I can't imagine what a person would do with a bunch of little green tomatoes so I have to believe it was an animal of some sort, but I don't know what kind would have had the reach to get them all and the dexterity to do it neatly. And oddly enough the only two tomatoes left were the one that's turning red and the only other larger one with rot on the bottom. All the smaller ones of varying sizes are gone. Crazy. I guess I just have to hope some more grow back. I took some of the bean plants out of the cage that look like they may have grown their last bean and moved in the two tomato plants (the one tomato plant that has been doing well was already in the cage and is fine). Speaking of the bean plants, I don't know if they'll flower again or if they're just done for. I can't complain, they were easy maintenance and the beans were good, but that seemed quick. Next time maybe I'll try pole beans instead of bush beans.
