De-seeded tomato. Tomato soup. Im getting better at deseeding them as I cut them up.
Ugh.. I'm not sure I'm going to get through this whole tomato by myself... theres a lot Ieft still.

In other news, I sprayed home made "apple cider vinegar" on some powdery mildew spots. I think it will work. Once the acetobacter coats the apples the apple mash becomes very, very mold resistant. I dont know how it does this. I sprayed it in the evening. I also "accidentally" sprayed some on some small pumpkins and on a tomato. It wasnt really an accident. I need to know if anything harmful to the fruit can arise out of the vinegar biology. Its weird stuff. I can afford to sacrifice a few fruit that were basically duds.

Im curious to know if the vinegar spray would attract or repel any garden pests... some deer & rodent pressure right now. And fruit flies.
