Both of the straw-bale plants have blossoms now in Week 4, though the ones on the left are a little sad-looking. I've noticed that even on our bed-planted tomatoes a number of the blossoms are dropping; apparently this can be due to excessive temperatures, and we've been having a bit of a heat wave this past week, with temps in the high 90s F. (mid-30s C) though it's still May. I'm watering the bale every morning, since it doesn't hold as much water as soil would.
Only the cherry tomato in the back has fruit on it yet, but that is running rampant -- all green though, as we planted a bit late in the season.
