Northern Zone Pushers: watcha doing?

Timomac · March 10, 2014

I've just finished planting 6 varieties of tomato along with some parsley and basil seeds under ma new light fixture. I upgraded from my original 2 x 4 foot, full spectrum T8 flourescent fixture to a 4 x 4' T5 bulb fixture.

Therefore, it is summertime and the good weather must follow here in Chicago.

My list this year is:

Moravsky Div
Indian Stripe
KBX
Brandywine Sudduth
Sungold
Big Beef

I like to have a couple hybrids in the mix due to different fungal issues in my garden/area, here outside of Chicago. I'd rotate but I haven't got a large area. I'm trying a different regimen of organic fungicides, something Amideutch used in years past, with mycos (Great White for me), Actinovate, Excel LG (Organicide) and Bonide Copper spray if necessary.
