Those photos are fascinating, Sher. Watching what the plants do in slightly different situations is what makes AGs (and this forum) so much fun.  |

The spindly plants that are too cool are still producing tomatoes.
The other one desperately needs a canopy trim, but it is in a hard to reach spot, so I am pretty much letting it do its own thing.

Nice photos, Sher.  I'm happy to report that my larger Veranda Red is beginning to produce flowers. The other one has started to grow again in its new location. Neither is worth photographing right now, but it looks like I will have red tomatoes to go with the Golden Harvests after all. 😀 |

Mine look about the same as the last photos. But they both are putting on more tomatoes.

The Veranda Reds are growing in such a civilized way. One of my VR plants is about to flower. The VRs don't produce a thick canopy of leaves like the AG tomatoes do, and I love them for it. What do your VRs taste like? High or low acid?

lynnee, I am embarrassed to say I don't remember how they taste. I just remember that they were prolific and that I really liked them.

First ripe one!
The tomatoes are a lot smaller than the Veranda Reds I grew previously, due to the colder temperatures these are growing in. But I am very happy to see them ripening anyway.

One of my Veranda Reds has tiny tomatoes on it! |

I hope yours grow as big -- or bigger -- than my previous grow did, lynnee. I will be watching. |

I have two tomatoes (one on each plant) that have tomatoes as large as the last time I grew Veranda Reds.
I popped two of the tomatoes in my mouth tonight, and they were as good as I remembered. Mostly sweet with a little tomato tang.

Your Veranda Reds look fabulous, Sher! Both of my plants have a few tomatoes developing, but they're growing slowly. My AG Golden Harvest plants are loaded with tomatoes that are ripening very slowly. I need to try the suggestion about putting something around the garden to hold in heat.  |

Several tomatoes already ripened and were promptly popped into my mouth. Some might make it into a salad.
