Lee Drennen’s Hobby Farm & Garden

For some reason, we can't grow tomatoes past the flowering stage. The plants are strong and flower really well and then seem to stall. Small fruit that never rippen.

I didn't bother this year.
Where are you attempting to grow, out side or under glass ?
 
I've got a small greenhouse and have tried them in that but I've tried growbags in a sheltered but sunny spot with the same results

I've tried different varieties too.

Nice to see an update. Looks very cold but spring is round the corner.

Thanks Jim I know you always liked what’s going on at the farm. Yes Spring is almost here but I kinda hate to see winter go as I enjoy the snow more these days because I don’t have to work in the winter.

It does look rather cold in those pictures Lee, the sheep look well though.

Yes it was cold here we had a couple weeks this winter where the temperatures were in the high the teens and lows in the negatives. The Sheep didn’t mind they had a good coat on and I made a deep litter of Straw for them to lay down on in the barn. Thanks for stopping by.

Thank you Richard I appreciate it. I’m so blessed with this small Farm I’ve down sized it quite a bit from years past. Maybe someday you’ll get that wish but if you have a window you still can put out a little garden in your flat with a few plants. Hope to get some more updates on the farm soon. Lots of work to do since spring is on our heels here.

IMG_2320.jpg IMG_2323.jpg IMG_2328.jpg This weekend was very busy. Saturday hauled Manure up to the field and spreaded by hand and got a few other things done. The sheep got out and had fun roaming around eating the green grass.
 
My wife said Cuteness overload.Love sheep,I had a knitted one when i was about 6 and didnt like to be at school without it.
 
A lamb - wonderful. Certainly very cute. Lambs are starting to make an appearance in the fields around us too.
