The tomato is... not dead yet?  It doesn't look as bad as it did last weekend.  I can't bring myself to rip it out just yet.  The tomatoes that are on there are growing and ripening.  So I won't tear it out until that stops happening.  I'm sure it's not going to put on more tomatoes or more flowers, so I'm just waiting out the ones on there already.  When it happened, I had only gotten ONE tomato, and the idea of tearing out this giant plant after one fucking tomato was just too much.  And now I've got like, 8 cherry tomatoes.  There are like 2-3 dozen on the vines, and I don't anticipate they'll all be harvest-able, but we'll wait and see.

I got another 4 or 5 beans this evening, and I wanted to weigh what I have so far.  I have 4 oz of beans right now.  Ugh.  And the one big tomato I got was I think 7 ounces?  I want to be one of these people that knows the yields they get, because I like quantifying things.  There are two larger tomatoes on that plant, and one is starting to get a little pink.  Maybe in a week it will be ready.

I had all these Basil starts inside, still in their tiny six-pack prisons.  I ripped out the stupid Gladioli from their container.  I got like, 10 flowers off of them, and I think I have like 25 bulbs in there.  So, that's fair, they were all either holdovers from last year or old bulbs I never planted.  I'm really sick of them.  So I ripped them out, and I put in 6 of the Basil plants.  The other 6 are still sitting in their six-packs, but I need to do something with them soon.

I could rip out that stupid Hibiscus.  It's not going to bloom again.  It's obviously happy; it keeps growing and putting on new leaves.  But it's just not going to bloom.  I could try root-pruning it, but that seems like way more work than I want to do, and it seems like it's likely to kill it hard. So I should probably just rip it out.
