Totally Tomatoes - Sent wrong seed!!!!!
Comments (7)Ya'll have been so nice to respond... My dear daddy, who is 85 years of age, has taught me all I know when it comes to vegetable gardening. As a child, we children were taught to tend the garden. You name it, we did it. Hoed the garden, picked green beans, stringed the beans, shucked the corn, even sowed beans and corn. Sounds like we were slaves, :>, but Lord knows it was the best days of my life. Those were the good ole days. :> Having said all that, these EGirls were grown for him as well. When I received the call from him stating he thought maybe somehting was wrong with these "red" toms (that are now yellow) I was disppointed for him not me. As the southern gentleman he is, honey don't worry about it, we'll make do. I assured him I had plenty other red tomatoes I was growing and if I had enough to eat on, he would too. It's just nice to walk out the back door and pick your own. Also, not ever growing determinate toms before,(which I think these are) will they last very long? These plants are very short and full of tom's, maybe 6 - 8 right next to each other. There isn't much foliage as well. I'm looking forward to enjoying the taste of my "yellow" early girls. :> :> lolololol...See MoreNEW: Incredible Edibles Totally Tomatoes Swap

Comments (98)Corrine1 - yours was perfect ;-) I agree that the PO is very inconsistent with pricing. I know WAY more about this pricing then one should :-) (seed whore here) The bubble envies cannot fit through the sorter machines, so hopefully the employees never attempt it. Perhaps most envies thicker then 1/4" fail to fit through, so they are hand stamped (?); and jump to the "large" envie pricing. Bubble envies are at least 1/4" when empty and for sure jump into the large envie pricing. Once the bubble envelope gets to be more then 3/4" thick, they jump into the parcel package pricing. Envies too small (!!) or too large also fall into this category. AND, if the length x width ratio is off, they fall into this category also. I have taken an "off ratio" envie into my PO, after more postage was requested (before the hostage notes started), and been told that the envie is ok - no extra postage needed. It is cheaper to buy/use a say 8x10 bubble envie and cut it into smaller envies, and this is when the ratio can be off. Although I cannot speak for the PO, I've traded enough times to know the issues that can arise - experienced them all! It is VERY inconsistent. I noticed, especially with the Canadian Post envies, that some hand stampers miss the stamps all together. For those in the USA, I will reuse/resend, and not waste/use another stamp. For the Canadian swappers, I'll try to remove the stamps so they can be reused in Canada....See MoreNEW: Christy's TotallyTasty Heirloom Tomato Swap!

There is still minor flooding, but atleast that water leaves the streets during low tide. So only stuck part of the day! LOL! Still having connection problems with tv and internet though. Lots of cleaning up still to do. So many trees fell down all over. After all the heavy snows and then this storm, poor things could not handle it.
