How is that Red Robin? I have two growing in a pots on my windowsill with a view of the snow. . I think I started mine around late Dec. along with a few micro varieties plus 2 of Dan's experiments from 2018 or 2019. Vilma is starting to set tiny buds and roots are coming out the bottom of a 6 inch Bloem pot.

Hello, Lisa.
I grew Vilma for three years. But I wasn't very happy with the taste, so I just didn't include it in my grow-home list for this season. When exactly did you sow it? Do you grow it on the window sill or in a greenhouse? It's perfect for growing at home.

My first ripe tomatoes are expected some time in March. That is if things go well. At the moment, my toms aren't getting much daylight as the weather has been cloudy and snowy/rainy. Daylight only contributes to the total light with sometimes less than 1,000 lx.
