I'm going to update in here soon.  I got the two rain gutter gardens going ... about 19 tomato plants in them.   When I left 3 weeks ago they were about 2 ft each; I now have a fucking wall of tomato plants and can count about 30 sets of 5-10 flowers blooming lol. 

Will post some picks.  I just got four more 10' gutters from lowes and built two more stands with them.  Going to hit this up!

Q
Didn't realize you were the rain gutter farmer, macsak inspired me to start my prep garden when he gave me taro babies. I wish I did';t just eat my monster eggplant so I could have posted a picture of it with my garden photos, when i get to it. Just have a raised garden. helped to keep out slugs so far. Works fine. You guys are a plethora of info.

Don't forget to prune those suckers so it puts all the energy into fruit. Wait. That sounds slightly homoerotic.

Yeah I gotta look into how to maintain them.  Fuckers are huge now!  This was like 2 weeks ago.  They are about a foot higher now.

the sucker is the extra growth in between where two branches split apart. you don't want any 3 way branches. the middle one may produce fruit but it will slow down production and you won't get the most bang for the buck
