2013 Tomato Growing

Scrungee,

Hiya simbad

Interesting that. Me and John (JWK) were discussing this a while back (in this thread), about whether or not Marmande could be grown under cover. I was saying that I seemed to recall they should only be grown outdoors, and John had tried them in his greenhouse, and they failed.

Interesting and I thought this variety did better in a greenhouse , maybe I'll try a couple outside this year to compare, may get a bigger crop , mind you I do give plants to a friend every year who grows them on his patio and he's never said he's had any problems.

 

First post so hello to all!

This year i will be growing

Hallo Hunterm8,

Hi JWK

I grew in GHS Quadgrows last year. I also use them so i can leave them a few days without watering. They are at my allotment in a polytunnel, i don't always get chance to get down there daily.

 

I just don't know what I'll do if they all germinate!

120 tomato seeds sown today, 10 different varieties, maybe more 'cos I was given a cherry medley packet of seed.

Also sown some brassicas, potted on some onions, very productive day

 

sorry, not paying attention,
Jenny

 

Hello chums
