I started my tomato crop from seed in March and kept them in the greenhouse in half gallon containers for way too long because I was growing snow peas in the spot I was planning to plant the tomatoes in. The peas took forever to produce and it was well into June before I could plant the tomatoes. Now its August and my tomatoes are just starting to produce.
I ended up harvesting maybe 10lbs of snow peas overall and I gave up on about a month's worth of tomato production to do it, I harvest about 5 pounds of tomatoes a day when they're in full swing. Really stupid mistake on my part, next year I'm killing the snow peas at the start of May and planting the tomatoes, I don't care if I don't harvest a single pea, I was only growing them for the nitrogen fixing. I'll probably end up buying some canned tomatoes with goyslop coating inside the cans this winter because of my ill advised decision to wait to harvest the peas before planting the tomatoes. Last fall I had my enough of my own canned and frozen tomato harvest to last all winter long, I only used up my last jar of them a couple weeks ago.
