Our early girl and cherry tomato plants are blooming! Is it too late to spray some neem oil on the cherry tomatos? They are only about a month old, the few fruits are very small.

I think it should be fine ... "think" being the key word here ... I haven't had the need to spray neem on the Tomatoes ... yet.

neem oil is probably pretty harmless. im gonna dust the lower leaves and topdress with diatomacious eath if this rain ever stops. for the san marzano plum tomatoes i hope the hempy buckets i setup remedies the inconsistant watering thats inevitable lately. i wanna prevent blossom end rot.
roma-types are particularly prone to BER
the hempy buckets may very well do the trick. the gardening forum has growers who swear by earth-tainers and other self-watering pots
my maters are in rockwool cubes on slabs and my peppers and cukes are in waterfarms so i dont worry about watering cycles as such
japanese black trieffle
sioux
sungold hybrid
calypso pickling
charleston hot
nu-mex sandia

I've gotten a few rotten bottoms on the straight Romas ... looks like they're suffering from Black Ass disease ...

We've got a few hundred in cages on our small farm, mostly Cherokee Purple and pink Brandywine, but a few hybrid beefsteaks and red and yellow cherries.
I've grown a variety of heirlooms and I prefer Cherokee Purple and Julia Child to anything else. This year has been disease free so far with good weather and I'm sure the proactive application of Serenade has something to do with that. Unfortunately, a late frost meant a late re(start) and I don't have a single ripe tomato of any kind yet.

Im running a few tomato plants outside for the first time, along with some other veggies. Romas, Brandywines, Goliaths, a few cherry varieties, etc. All in 5gal grow bags, watered daily. Soil is mix of potting and top soils, amended with bone meal, some slow release chem ferts, peat and perlite. They also get occasional doses of the special "inside" nutes and supplements. Ive been pulling ripe stuff for the last couple of weeks. It's just as much fun growing legal shit as illegal shit!

Late blight is pretty severe and more rain, but finally have some delicious Brandywine and Cherokee Purple ready.

That's one of the biggest I've ever seen ... I bet that sucker can decimate some foliage ... cherries are good eating ... we're hovering around 95 here ... I'll have to water tonight.
