2017 Season Progression
Started seed late by most of the other Florida growers on this site due to family and work obligations. Transplanted my first cherry and saladette tomato seedlings on 11-1-16
which included:
Black Cherry
Stupice
Sungold F1
Reisentraube
Was lucky enough to be eating fresh tomatoes on Christmas Day.
Transplanted my larger varieties on 12-1-16 which included:
Akers West Virginia
Alex Popovich Yugoslavian
Cuostralee
German Johnson Benton strain
Girl's Girl weird Thing
Iraqi Heart
Neves Azorean Red
New Big Dwarf
Noir de Crimee
Palmira's Northern Italian
Rebel yell
Sakharnyi Pudovichok
Stump of the World
Wes
After a tough battle with disease, insects, and pests I was determined not to throw in the towel as bad as it seemed and managed to bring most to fruiting stage. Although the yields are somewhat low I am excited. The unfortunate part is I lost my only New Big Dwarf to mite damage which never recovered and ended up in the trash. This my favorite from last year so hopefully the others I am growing can carry the torch. Here are some mid-grow pics w/ the large ripe a Sakharnyi Pudovichok.
