Well, we’ve had our first tomato of the year, but it isn’t great news. It was green for starters, as you’d expect right now, but more importantly it had also been nibbled by thing or things unknown. Look:

That’s no good, is it.
The thing is, none of the other tomato vines (we have about 20 on the go in total, both in and out of the greenhouse) has any tomatoes on them at all, so I don’t know how this one got to the size of a fairly large grape when all of the other plants are just showing yellow flowers so far.
Anyhow, we obviously won’t be eating it, and it’s so early in the season that there’s still plenty of time for many more to grow, but I’m still intrigued to know just what it was that ate our first fruit of the year so far from the ground.
