Sad Tomatoes

 So excited to harvest my first tomatoes when we got back from our weekend away! Nothing better than fresh tomatoes straight from the garden.

However it was not meant to be. My first ripe tomatoes were small. And looked like this.



Edible, I think not. Some quick research with the googler and it turns out the have blossom end rot. They didn't get enough water at the right time. Hopefully the rest of my tomato crop isn't ruined. I think next year we will have to mulch around the babies to keep the moisture in the soil.

As with most things around the Acres you live and learn.
