Probably the closest equivalent: Tomatoville
Problem is, you most likely can't sign up. The "Boss" over there is an ornery 'ole cuss. It usually takes months to get approved, sometimes years, sometimes never.
Because of the politics at the above, a small group split off a few years ago and created a new site: Tomato Junction
Just like the pepper folks here, there are a lot of very knowledgeable tomato people over there.

@Downriver We just need the Boss here to make a âSpicy Tomatoâ section 
Until then Iâll go check out Tomato Junction thanks

Thanks for the tip!
Slow start but things are starting to pick up.
Making big changes in the garden this year. The aquaponics system was in a bad spot come to find out. Going to have to find a place further away from the trees. Not looking forward to digging another hole for the sump tank so might try and redesign without the use of a buried sump. For now I thought it was a good opportunity to add a couple new beds. I worked in some perlite and peat but I still need to fill the rest of the bed with something so going to the store later. Here we grow!

Back home with the goods and realized I shorted myself a bag of manure. 
That kinda crap bugs me. Anyways got it all in and turned. I donât expect this to be some miracle mix, itâs basically shredded hardwood 3 different ways with sand

Thanks I really hope so. These beds are mainly for veggies that do better in the ground. The peppers and tomatoes will be in planters and grow bags.

What's on the garden grow list this year?
To bad I don't have your set-up.
Because the idea to use the holes in the cinder blocks for flowers is awesome!

I love this idea - and may well steal it
Squash, zucchini, cucumber, black beans, cowpeas, okra, roselle, peppers, tomatoes and salad lettuce.
If I can find room: cabbage, potatoes
Flowers: marigolds, pentas, sunpatiens
Herbs: cilantro, culantro, dill, basil, rosemary, sage, lemon balm, Papalo, thyme
Nice!
How fast does the roselle grow from seed in one season? I've been wanting to try it, but don't want to have yet another plant I need to take inside during winter.

This my first year growing roselle but it's related to okra. It's not cold tolerant but you should be able to grow and harvest seeds in the same season for the next. It likes heat and grows fast from what I understand so i'll start Roselle with okra in mid april.

Turns out the window was to hot lol. I put some pepper seeds up there and when I checked them today they were cooking. I think a northside window would be better for this or just a bright location not necessarily a window.
