Someone/something has nibbled on our baby tomatoes! We think this is the culprit:
Can you spot the squirrel?
One of our plants had toppled over under the weight of the tomatoes growing on it, and that's the one that was nibbled upon. K's parents have tried to bolster the remaining plants with more soil below so that they won't topple over too. Anyone who has any other suggestions as to how to get our tomato plants to grow tall and proud, with plenty of fruit for us, pls leave a comment or email me.Squirrels are not cute.

Tie the plant to a stick that is hammered to the grouund next to it as a brace. My parents did that for a water lotus plant and it works pretty well.
Thanks! We'll try that. The squirrel got another two baby tomatoes yesterday though. So we only had one left. And since Keith's the one who's been working hard on the plants in the garden, he got to try it. He said it was sweet!
