It might not look as "cultivated", but I'm very impressed, no more harvesting green tomatoes in case someone steals them!

The bush is back
Now I've copped a lot of criticism about the way I grow tomatoes, I've been guilty of not trimming the suckers off enough, not keeping things in order. I tried this year to make it better, I removed every sucker I could find, but then I went away for a couple of weeks and came back to a tomato forest.....BUT! I've since worked out that it does have advantages. I seem to have just as much yield as previous years, the difference is that all the tomatoes are hidden in the bush, so pesky animals (and even peskier old ladies who live in my block with an appetite for home grown tomatoes) can't see them, it's not until you have a close look that you notice hundreds of green tomatoes, nicely ripening up (in the shade of the bush no less!).
