Amazing Balconytomato™

Ok clearly bonsai is going to take years and probably end in heartbreak so I started another project that might bring some quicker satisfaction(or disappointment) to me and the blog, hope Petersan doesn't mind. I am keeping the spirit of the bonsai and making it cheap and experimental.

Goal: grow a sweet sweet tomato, the fruit of love, a divine tomato buddha himself would enjoy snacking on. This is the stuff dreams are made of.
Time: 7:30am Thursday May 22nd, partly cloudy, 15c
Location: My balcony
Cost: $2.10

Materials
1 flat of 9 'Pink Girl' tomato plants $2(£1)
2 plastic bags(previously enjoyed, one owner)
1 flower pot left over from last year
1 pot my bonsai came in
1 bunch of soil, some left over, some from a bag i was given
1 foam plate $0.10(5p)

Here is the flat of Pink Girl tomatoes from Reno Depot


Here is 3 potted on the front balcony, 1 will be moved to the back if the other back one survives


Here is one potted on the back balcony, it gets very hot on the back so there is a foam plate under the pot. A male blackbird who was guarding a nest across the yard protested loudly to me about putting the pot there, I was not deterred.
