I started these as cuttings in my Rooting Cuttings thread, but am moving them to their own thread now that they are established plants.
I grew them in the Bounty last time, but I think they will probably be fine in the smaller machine. We'll see!
If not, I'll move them to Kratky.

I have already had to prune one large overhanging branch.
I checked out Corinne's Red Windowbox project, and she recommends only one plant in the Harvest. So I will be moving one out to give the other one room to grow.

The Red Windowbox is thriving! So glad I didn't try to grow two in a Harvest.
The cuttings mature SO much faster than seeds. I just discovered my first flower today!

I had to remove a surprising amount of foliage to open up the tomato plant. But I think it looks a lot happier now.
I also moved the Harvest to the window because not enough light was reflecting from the wood wall. Also, the lipstick plant in the window needed more light.
I'm hoping this will be a win-win setup.

It is growing like it's on steroids since I moved it to the window. It loves the light that comes in through the blind slats.

"Loading Up" is no exaggeration!

The leaves were so awfully dense that I ended up removing half of them. I also accidentally cut off a long string of blossoms!
That set the plant back and probably significantly reduced my harvest. But there are still a lot of happy looking toms.
