Two signs this might be a good day, for me.

First: for the first time in months, Aldi has yeast packets!!

And, second, my tomatoes are phasing past blossoms into FRUIT!

Mid-Michigan so generally it's around August, for me Siwsan Jun 2020 #2

I don't know where you are, but here in NH my tomatoes don't ripen until early Sept.

These are Early Girls. The Grape are probably going to be showing though, soon - especially since we are in for a week + of 90 degree days and 70 degree nights.

and I also have a few tomatoes. Last year we got tomatoes big enough to eat in late July.

I had started a whole bunch of plants so I'd have some in reserve, just in case. I finally put some of those in, and they are growing so fast, I swear if I sat in the garden, I'd actually see it happening.
