Carbon Tomatoes

Not the first tomatoes of the year... but I've been waiting for this gorgeous clump of tomatoes to turn for weeks now.


  These all came off of the same Carbon tomato plant.  


Carbon is such a nice, consistent producer that the plant's habit reminds me very much of Celebrity.


Mmm... they're just gorgeous!  A couple for me and then more to share.  I'll let them ripen a bit more on the counter, but I had to get them out of that tangle of a plant before they got too soft.

  1. Those are beauties!
    Are you finding that your tomatoes seem to be taking longer than normal to ripen this summer?

  2. Yes, they are taking forever. Usually I get my first tomato in the last week of July, or the first week of August. I figured we would be about two weeks behind because of the cold, wet end to May. But even now that they have started, they are taking a long time to color up. And now we are getting cooler temperatures especially at night, which won't help.
