Looks very good and healthy. What varieties are you growing? They look very compact and bushy, are they a determinate tomato?
I got most of mine planted 3 days ago, so I have a couple of months before expecting edible fruit. This is my 15th year of exclusively growing tomatoes and like you, I find it very enjoyable and therapeutic. One year I grew 30 different Heirloom varieties and my wife thought I had lost my tomato loving mind. I wanted to try a wide variety and see what I like, grew well and produced the best. Some turned out to be Mules and didn't produce any fruit. And most did not produce very many fruit and were very susceptible to disease. It turned into a lot of work to try and keep them going.
The last few years I only grow a total of 4 plants in large 30 gallon containers and have more tomatoes than we can eat and they produce into November or the first hard freeze and it takes little effort. I grow 2 Cherokee Purple, 1 Big Beef and 1 Celebrity. All indeterminates.
I would enjoy hearing about yours.
