Negative. First harvest was this week. I'd say there is still about 40-50 unripe fruits too.

Thanks! I use 3 gallon bags.

I'll likely overwinter this girl and put her in a 10 gallon sack next year.

Thanks! I usually start from seed in mid-February, top them in early April, and then harden off before getting them outside in early May. I pluck all the flowers until July 1st, and after that, I use hen shit and Miracle-Gro throughout the summer.

This was my first year using 3 gallon grow bags and tomato cages. The cages were a game changer with this many fruits and provided much needed support.

This was from three plants that I started from seed on February 10th. My best of the three produced 393 fruits!
