Paul, the little tomato does look like a little gem -- in a fancy ring setting!

Excellent project! Love the update! Please don;t neglect to take more photos as they ripen..and tell what you think of the taste. Different people have different preferences on taste for the same variety! Looking forward to more!

Thank you Corinne! I keep a pretty daily photostream on flickr; www.flickr.com/photos/190348671@N03/I hope that link works! Made a few batches of pickles with the herbs from AG1; My son polished off the first jar after they sat in the fridge for 2 days - he stopped by after work and scarfed them down - "hey thanks, see ya" lol. I made these tonight. Basic cukes from our local Aldi, fresh dill, thai basil, thyme, pickling salt, pickling seasoning, 1/4 chop white onions, and 6 cloves garlic, white vinegar and water (liquid 1-1). These are tiny one-beer 12oz jars - for some reason last years quart jars of pickles that I gave away never made their way back so I was stuck using my 12oz jars (usually relegated to the freezer for beer!). Corinne I'm looking forward to trying your cucumber project so I can make those mini-munch cukes for pickling.

Your Flickr photos are beautiful.
And you have given me an urge to make pickles. Yours look delicious.

Quick update (i'm never quick who am I trying to kid?) - In one of my Harvest 360s the Heirloom Cherry Tomatoes seem to be coming along well. They're responding nicely to the occasional trim and daily bee game. In the Harvest 2019 I've harvested out my Thai Basil twice and Geno Basil three times now. The Thyme has finally gotten to where I can use it and see regrowth. The dill is also filing back in but I'm not sure fast enough for our pickle habit Parsley seems to be moving a little slow, not sure if the Mint is crowding it out or not as it is growing quite well. Then in the other Harvest 360 I have three Romaine plants that have served us well! Yesterday was my third harvest of all three plants, their last nute serving was a week ago and they were not bitter at all. I removed one of the plants and trimmed back the attached roots in the basin and then kept that cage for future use. Oh, did I mention this was just a quick update?
