Remember last year when I planted only 2 tomato plants? And the angry raccoon tore up the walls of water where one of the plants lived?
The plant lived on but never recovered. It was supposed to be a prolific yellow cherry tomato plant but it barely grew to a foot and I got about 10 tomatoes off of it.
I saved some seeds and started one on the window sill. See arrow above. I was determined to get my prolific yellow cherry tomatoes.
The rest of those are 2 tomatoes, 4 cucumbers, and 4 Anaheim pepper plants.
Look how healthy and happy it looks, ready for it’s big new life outside.
Then: tragedy.
This was not an angry raccoon. This was operator error. I knew it was kinda tricky getting the walls of water to balance right so I was extra careful.
But not extra careful enough. I looked outside a couple of hours later to see the ruin. Poor little yellow cherry tomato. It is not to be for us.
I have one more tomato on the window sill that I can transfer to this spot.
