I transplanted these yellow tomatoes (along with some herbs) from my Sprout Starter to a Harvest. I will transplant them to a larger machine later.

They look healthy and sturdy already at just a month old! Nice!

The trunks are already so thick I was actually a little worried.

Nah. The ones I have were like that. It may be an indicator of a heavy load coming, so they produce a strong base to support the huge production. Hey, it's maybe not that far fetched, LOL!

I’ve got flowers but keep forgetting to pollinate.

Mary can you make it is daily thing to just stroll thru that area for 5 minutes a day no matter the time to give them all a "pet"?

Oh I’m there everyday- they’re next to the microwave, I just still forget, lol. I just moved the Be The Bee from the mystery peppers, which are kind of far away, to these to help remind me. They’re very dense and stiff so they don’t lend themselves well to hand pollination. Shaking them could break them.

They look good! How tall are they supposed to get? According to the vendor description, “This micro-dwarf variety tops at about 12 inches when grown in low light; it may reach only 6-8″ when grown in bright light.”. So I guess I could keep them in a short machine after all. But i think I’d still need to give them each their own machine if it’s a Harvest, just to accommodate the roots comfortably.

I have grown them with height to spare in the SS6, so a Harvest would do well! I wouldn't try them in a Sprout, though.

I had to cut off a lot of yellowing fronds, but it revealed all these gems. And allowed me to pollinate flowers I couldn’t see. B ut a funny curiosity is that my AG parsley pod is in fact dill. And here is my oregano pod. I hope I like the taste.

Nice gems. Another seed mix up from AG. I would call them and get a Parsley replacement. As for the oregano. IF I remember from when I first grew it, it was not bad.

A little more growth in just 3 days. I think they liked their haircut.
