2013 Tomato Growing

Seedling count as of this morning: 6 Better Boy, 6 Early Goliath, 6 Big Zac, 4 Delicious, 5 San Marzano, 11 Big Boy, 7 Gardeners Delight, 8 Harbinger and 5 Cherry type, varieties unknown, mixed packet of seed received as a freebie! Yesterday I sowed a few seeds saved from the monster Big Boy I grew last year, it'll be interesting to see if the seed is viable.

 

I got fed up and sowed my outdoor plant seed yesterday in the propagator.
A few F1 Cossack, and F1 Incas, never grown either before so it will be a new one on me.

For a couple of years I have grown plants which I had bought, I've found they just dont grow that well, so gone back to sowing my own seed.

 

Hello chums

Well, on the whole, I've had good germination All we need now is a sustained period of 'normal' weather....yeah right

 

All going strong thus far
3 Better Boy

11 Gardeners Delight.....

 

Hiya loli

That's 60 in all, I guess you like Tomatoes?

 

.....just a bit.....

Question....Where am i going to put them ? .....

 

Yup, the perennial question Why do we do it...every year!

 

Today, I ave been mostly potting on my Early Goliaths.

 

Where bis thee gonna grow they to then?

 

In my car if things go to plan, just knocked £5k off the house price to get things moving.

 

Good luck with the house Zigs.

Will you change your avatar please, it looks like you're in permanent mourning.

 

This be it?

 

Potted on the 12 early plants that have been getting leggy on the windowsill & banished them to the greenhouse (heated to be frost free with a bit of luck). Best looking is probably Alacante but they are all strong - Roma has a crazy amount of root coming out the bottom of the pot.. I do enjoy growing a load of different types & seeing what the differences are.
