I did find out that poking holes in the bottom of a water bottle and jamming it into the pot does work, I probably just needed one bottle for every day we were gone since that little Tumbler tomato was sucking down the water. Even still, it gave one big push in mid-July and then ramped up for a second push in September, and then the weather cooled off just after Labor Day.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nI&#8217;ve kept it going over the last 6 weeks hoping to see those green globes ripen.  There&#8217;s still a bunch on there that have managed a yellow-orangey hue, but I think it&#8217;s over. This isn&#8217;t California. We&#8217;ve had rain off and on for the last week and on Sunday, it only got up to 50F &#8212; not tomato-growing weather. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/2011\/10\/17\/photo-one-off-goodbye-summer\/cherry-tomatoes-about-to-be-roasted\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4729\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/cherry-tomatoes-about-to-be-roasted.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"cherry tomatoes about to be roasted\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" class=\"lazyload_inited aligncenter size-full wp-image-4729\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/cherry-tomatoes-about-to-be-roasted.jpg 640w, https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/cherry-tomatoes-about-to-be-roasted-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dailywaffle.com\/stage1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/cherry-tomatoes-about-to-be-roasted-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So on Sunday, I roasted this last batch of cherry tomatoes with a couple of cloves of garlic, a couple of glugs of olive oil and salt and pepper.

We&#8217;ll have a final taste of summer, co-mingled with the flavors of fall.
