BKX vs Black Krim.

Kellogg's Breakfast vs. BKX

Seeds sown for all four March 11.
BKX had 100% germination, Black Krim 66%.
KBX 60%, Kellogg's Breakfast 80%

All fertilized with 1/4 strength fish emulsion and liquid kelp on 3/26.
Hardening off began 4/15. Transplanted 5/14.
Sprayed with epsom salt and aspirin solution 5/15.
Calnit down the tube 6/8, prune and azamax/dawn spray on leaves 6/9.
6/14 fertilized with solution of Dr. Earth's tomato food/Big bloom/Great big tomatoes.

All four plants showing some level of fasciation at the stem today, 6/15.
All have flowered, none have fruited.
BKX is the worst, also showing two fused blossoms.


This is the BKX plant as a whole.


Black Krim is larger, with more blossoms.


I am attempting to prune BKX and Black Krim to two stems.


This is Kellogg's Breakfast:

Here is KBX today:


And KBX's much more pronounced fused stem. KBX is also smaller than Kellogg's Breakfast.
