Tomato End Game

I sprayed the tomatoes and beans for whiteflies and then trimmed some leafy runners from the tomatoes and tied the rest up, making order from chaos. I have 30 to 50 days until the first frost, and I'd like to can at least 12 more quarts. I tasted a commercial Roma tomato, and it was really lacking in flavor, compared to my Early Girls.

I may not re-plant right away. As I recall, what I planted last fall went into suspended animation anyway, until spring. I have lots to do, and plenty of vegetables put away, so I could take a break.
