I put in 12 tomato plants last weekend and I hope they still have time to grow.

Garden has hit *that point*: the greens have become a caterpillar farm, a few things have withered in the heat and lots of things are scrappy and have gone to seed.
What's worth putting in? (UK)

I'm an asshole and didn't get my tomato cage extensions up before the plants overgrew the five foot cages; I now have a big tomato vine mess on my hands. At least they have set fruit! And my hot peppers and cukes are producing nicely despite similar levels of neglect.

I've got three tomato plants growing on the sunny windowsill at work, two growing in my garden and one on a home windowsill. `I have a crop of six tomatoes.

I'll go back outside for Gardening 2018 once the fucking mosquitoes have died back.
