It's going bad! Either the heat or something has withered one tomato. The one jalapeño I planted in ground has been EATEN and I'm blaming all the animals I've seen (squirrels, chipmunk, rabbits, birds) but ultimately I'm...fine with this. My garden is mostly a way for me to come to terms with the inability to be perfect at something. There's still tomatoes growing. I'll make something even if there won't be enough to can.
