Hallo friends. Skye is helping me look at a canned spaghetti sauce recipe as we have a couple of tomatoes (see 2nd pic). 🍅 The big red ones are not pictured, there are about 30 more. BunMum will sort and organize tomorrow. Had to get them in as it’s a killing frost tonight.

Sewer line update: Project manager said wait on the crack and 2nd sag - save up (ha) and we will do a camera check next year. He felt so sorry for us he gave us $500 off, which was very kind and kept it with tax to $17,000.

@Satori Oh, the purple ones! Nice crop!

@Byronrabbit Thank you! 😊 They’re so tasty, too! A bit less acidic too, so good for those of us with GERD! 😂

Those heirloom indigo rose tomatoes were the first time I’ve tried to grow from seed starting in the house.☺️

@Satori Impressive! I've only ever grown the cherry and grape tomatoes and get them from greenhouse plants. You're a true gardener!

@Byronrabbit Honestly, I was shocked. I was expecting spindly plants 😂. Thank you, but I suspect tomatoes are just verrrrry hardy. I did put an oscillating fan on them inside to toughen them up a bit in preparation for those Alberta spring winds. 😂🌬️

@Satori Yeah, wind burn turns leaves yellowish. They look yummy!

@Byronrabbit 😲 So that’s what causes those yellow leaves! I always wondered what causes that but never put the two together.

@Satori Greenhouse guy told me that. The plant survives though.
