How Quickly Does Albendazole Work?

[Ain't Nobody Here]

Came down this morning to find my tomato greenhouse (flimsy, rubbish, plastic thing ) in total shreds, tatters and ruins .

 

The poles have snapped, the plastic ripped and my tomato plants lying in disarray.

 

They were just starting to turn red .

 

I've binned the whole greenhouse and left the tomatoes lying where they are. At least they can't get blown over again .

 

It's only September . We've not even had the winter gale force winds yet .

Oh no!!

Mine blew down the garden with all my seedlings in it We tied it to the downspout on the guttering but I was always worried that it would pull all the guttering away from the house!

Can you hang your toms somewhere warm and sunny to ripen? Would be a shame to lose them all now

What a shame

How disappointing. I had a similar event a couple of years ago. I lashed mine to the drainpipe too and it was OK although a bit tattered from the event.

 

I had French Beans growing through a crack in the paving that summer.

hang the tom plants upside down, the fruits will ripen, knock the soil off the roots and hang form a hanging basket bracket or in a shed/garage/utility room that has a window

[Happy chickens!]

Grrr!

 

Hope you can salvage a few toms.

Thanks for that tip, Tasha .

 

They seem to be still intact, ie not snapped at the stems just bent, so could I just leave them lying sideways or do they really need to be behind glass or plastic?

 

I could put them in the garage but the window gets very little light .

I bring mine in when they start to turn as it is not so warm now and they ripen on the kitchen windowsill quickly so they really need the light or a banana in a brown paper bag with them
