Margaret, glad to hear that the tomatoes can usually pollinate themselves, by and large. Mike had suggested that I use a child's paint brush and assist the process. We're in for a very bad weather day on Wednesday -- hope something's left after the storms! Thanks, Penny (NY zone 6) _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
