Look what I found in our big tomato plants!!

Here is how tall our plants are now.... about 4 1/2 to 5 ft tall!! And we planted 3 ft apart and they have grown into each other. Next year NOT so much miracle grow. lol

Cause its taking so long for fruit to ripen because of so much "plant".
We are now prunning, which is how we found the nest.....

well, as I posted before, my tomatoes were growing real well until the squirrels got in to them. They have also eaten all my neighbors tomatoes as well, so I am not alone.

I think your tomatoes are bigger than ours  But we had to replant because geese ate a bunch of them. Our plants are huge too though!

I know what you mean. I was like geez when are they ever gonna ripen. But there is so much Plant and its causing it to feed to much. Plus with lack of sun etc. We have gotten blight in the very bottoms/base of plants. And I googled and it said to prune that off. Plus we figured if we prune excess "limbs" they say you will have fuller/bigger maters...
Figured we would give that a try. Cause we have not gotten a ripe one out of the garden yet. Just a ton of green beans, radishes and a few peppers. Our pepper plants are really quit large also. But the maters are growing into everything..lol

I used the miracle grow pellets when we first planted and my dh tilled in and then again about a month ago I think. Well thats what happens lol.
No I have no idea on what kind of a bird. Its look like pretty small nest..
the eggs as you can see are brownish. And I think robin eggs are blue?

I think they are Quail eggs, they lay them on the ground or low like that. Mine are huge too and my zucchini plants are 6x6 feet and I have 5!
