The indoor cherry tomatoes are starting to show color. It won't be long now. There is a Tiny Tim and a Siam plant this year.

Excellent!

When I saw the thread title I couldn’t understand how you could have tomatoes already. All I could think of is the storm we had all weekend that went from snot to ice to rain and back to snow, lol.
 
Inside..... I get it.
At the current temp of -2F they would be tomato rocks at my house.

You beat me. I got nothing! Maybe will get some seeded tomorrow
 
Yes, indoor only at this point. We have been regularly harvesting lettuce and basil over the winter, but the tomatoes were started late. I will have to start the indoor tomatoes on the first of October this year.

In the greenhouse we have already harvested the satsumas and meyer lemons. There are a ton of bbears limes and eureka lemons getting ready to pick. May have to make a key lime pie soon.

I've got some lettuce going under the lights. First time I have done it indoors during the winter.
