Growing Tomato

An update on my post of 14th May regarding the 'Lazarus' plant. I have now harvested about 14 beautiful tomatoes ranging from 250 to 320 gm and have at least another 12 or so to go. The plant just keeps growing and setting fruit. I think the comments from Barb and Pete regarding my problem being tomato russet mite fit the evidence. Presumably if this was the problem, by cutting the plant to the ground in mid December and replanting I removed the infestation.
