We've been fighting horn worms the past few days. Nasty little bastards and really hard to see but they will eat the chit out if your tomato plantSigh. @joevol33, this is all your fault! There are tomatoes on the vines, but no flowers:
Why Did My Tomatoes Stop Producing Fruit?
Nope. Few weeks ago I posted "I hate Bittersweet" and it was misunderstood so I dropped it. I took on more/different responsibilities and things change including my available time to post. I don't really hate Bittersweet, but sometimes it...well, is bitter. And sweet. Lulz.New “job”? Have I missed sumthin?

I grew purples last year. They were productive summer through fall. This year, only red bells from seed - started indoors this past December and transplanted in April. None have reached red - the missus has me harvesting them green for immediate use.
It is august which means that it is time to pick peaches. Grabbed about 30 of them yesterday.

I also see a nice up and coming limelight. I've got a young one trying to grow up. I may have gave it too much shade. But, it's only in it's second year out of the nursery.Ferns did better than ever this year.View attachment 385223View attachment 385224
It's two years old. I LOVE it!!! I am going to put a few in the backyard.

I have been spoiled. We bought an International Harvester in 1966. It was still running and breaking ground last year. The thing is a beast. Unfortunately when I left Knoxville in 2013, I gifted it to my neighbor so need another one.I haven't used one since I was maybe 16. (10 years ago). So I know nothing about them anymore. Would love to use that one you're looking at. Looks like a good one.
My personal choice would be rear tine. I've owned both and the front tine damn near beat me to death.I need a rototiller. Open to either front Tine or Rear. Want reverse and don't want anything like those mantis POSs. Gas, no electric. Going to be breaking hard clay and tilling deep. I need some suggestions. Was looking at:
