We will have tomatoes soon!

DeenaD @DeenaD (2684) • United States 29 Jun 10

I'm not a very experienced gardener, but this is what the tomato plants in my garden look like right now. Does anybody have their tomatoes yet, or any other vegetables? How long before I can expect to see tomatoes?

3 responses

knewfy You have awhile to wait. It takes about a month for that flower to change into a tomato, I think, looking at the flower. A lot depends on how much sun and how much rain. Good luck!

Do female dogs go through menopause too?

moonchild1au @moonchild1au (6237) • Australia 29 Jun 10

Ok this might be a weird question & I'm probably thinking that the answer will be no. But I was wondering, do female dogs who haven't been neutered ever stop coming into season? My girl has just come into heat & as you maybe...
