2007/2008 Tomato Harvest Summary

As I did last year, I kept track of the tomatoes picked in the 2007/2008 season. So far, I've picked 542 "good" tomatoes this season, weighing in at about 33.8 kg. The table below summarises the "good" crop.

In addition to numbers picked, I've included the total weights of fruits picked from the individual plants. This year I didn't bother keeping track of the "bad" fruit - i.e. those that were diseased and thus picked early and discarded.

This season was quite a bit shorter than both the 2004/2005 and 2006/2007 seasons. The 2005/2006 season was a write-off (see earlier posts for more details). By early March I had removed all but one plant. Despite the shortened season, the total weight of edible tomatoes picked was more than 2004/2005. However, it fell well short of the bumper harvest of last season (2006/2007).
