?  Time to compare our garden yields.    I vote sparse but I am not out weeding and watering like I should be.

mine are pretty small thanks to a stupid cold snap earlier in the planting season, when i set them outside. i started them from seeds rather than buying ones from a garden section, but now i wish i HAD bought plants, rather than seeds, because they wouldn't have been affected as drastically.
oh well =p even if i only get one tomato, they're lovely plants, and i've got plenty of seeds for next year.

The plant is loaded, but they are taking a long time to ripen, due to our strange weather this year.  I hope they finish up soon, we are almost done with the lettuce!

Mine are getting large and a couple have several green maters on them. There are lots of buds out and next month should be the big bonanza month for maters.

The radishes are doing well and should be ready for their first harvesting in a few days.

The herb garden is doing well. The oregano has went nutso.

The bell pepper plant should have buds out any day now.

The fucking rabbits fucking killed my pea and green bean plants. The fuckers!

For whatever reason mine always bloom late in the summer unlike normal tomato plants. Last year I had tomatoes well into October still going strong.... However, when they do get around to blooming they are usually very big and juicy! I was lucky two years in a row to find these wonderfully sweet cherry tomatoes. I do have to say I like my beefsteak tomatoes for grilling, but love my heirlooms for everything else!

My lavender, dill, chives, and lemon balm are in full bloom though. I've got some cucumbers too!

My plants are like 6' tall and happy as couple be, though I planted them a month late this year, so even the super-early variety I got (Bloody Butcher IIRC) has just finally gotten a couple ripe tomatos on it.

Yeah, I think those are their favorite foods. I've taken to either growing them inside a fence or up in a pot where they cant reach. I don't know how farmers manage!
