I hope GWPDA does check that house in Trail, BC out, and finds there are no lead-pollution problems!

Grown locally. So at least you have resistance to any germs.

It's a great house; hope it works out for her. If the Borg ever release her from servitude, that is.
I'd want to know what the groundwater situation is, too. However I have a very pollyannaish belief about Canada -- that they're vigilant about such things.

These are Chinese green tomatoes grown for export to the USA.
Covered in red lead paint.

True, plantsman. I think I'm starting to pull myself out of the abyss.
Just jealous about the tomatoes.

Definitely not Brandywines. I think they are an Italian or French tomato. Once in a while you can see them on sale here.

I'd imagine heat and humidity let some nasty pathogens flourish on tomatoes in your area, Tom.

I wonder if pot was legal if you could have marijuana honey like they have clover honey. Set the bees loose on the bud. Would the honey get you high*?

Unfortunately I don't have to imagine... grumble grumble grumble...
on the other hand I noticed a flower on one of my sweetsops today while cleaning up after the tropical storm.

In Berlin, in German markets, I never saw anything approaching a ripe tomato -- At Turkish bazaars, though...

That's one heck of an article by Foser, linked on the thread below.

interesting, joejoejoe, since there've been huge marijuana growing operations in Dallas the past few weeks, we may have a lot of tipsy honey users.

Doubt it. And I don't think it would taste very good.

Article written by the religion editor at the local rag. He's an acquaintance of mine, and relatively liberal. He's also the pop of one of Audrey's bandmates.

Male pot pollen will not elevate one, and this is more than theory. Female, being very sticky, rubs off less easily.

I had 5 different kinds of tomatoes this year. A whopping 2 sprouted, and of those, 1 put out maybe 8 tomatoes total while the other got about 7 feet tall and out of control, flowered a lot, but didn't fruit once.

Read somewhere that some journalizt heard from someone who was told by someone who read it somewhere that some consultant told the vendor to put all the red tones together to make the tomatoes more popular.
Could be an exaggeration, though.
