My cherry tomato plant, Justin Trusseau, just sprouted his first ever little tomato. I am SO proud! Justin has grown an awful lot bigger than I thought he would, he is nearly a metre tall in a month of growth. He’s a strapping lad.
The local bees have been absent, so I have been faux bee buzzing him with an electric toothbrush or a moulted chicken feather to pollinate him. All the tomato pleasuring has paid off! I am like a proud parent at her kid’s first day at school.
It’s a fancy variety that turns black in the sun, I can’t remember what it’s actually called. He’s Justin Trusseau to me lol. He lives next to my flat leaf Italian parsley, Parsephone. My husband is still buying fresh parsley at the shops, because we don’t want to eat our shrub kids.

Go Justin!!!
Nice! Look up how to do truss pruning and maybe swap out the cable ties, you will inevitably lose some of them when you rip the dead plants out and they will be in your soil forever
