Default The Dwarf Variety Seeds

When I began lurking this site, there was a forum about seed swapping/dwarf variety seeds that were being experimented with in different areas of the country. For whatever reason, I can no longer find that forum. Were the seeds a bust? Did they work well?

I found the discussions very interesting even though I couldnt view the photos. Am I just missing the forum? Can anybody direct me to a link?

All help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

There was never swapping of seeds for experimental purposes. As each variety was concluded to be stable Craig and Patrina, the co-leaders of the Dwarf Project released them to specific seed companies and all that info as to released varieties can be found in a thread in the Dwarf Project.

Above is a quick update on all varieties released from Tania's wonderful website.

Below it you can click on various varieties and view pictures of released varieties and check seed sources to see where they are sold.

Hope that helps.

I joined so I could see those pictures too!

I grew Rosella Purple and it's now on my permanent grow list!

Thank you for the link to the page on the tomatobase, I was wondering how to narrow the search down to just Dwarf Project varieties. Trying to decide on a second variety to try for Fall.

I might recommend "Sweet Sue". Absolutely the best and it's large enough to cover the sandwich.

I'd love to try Sweet Sue, but it's sold out this year! My other contenders for fall are Summertime Gold and Wild Fred. We need a Fall Crop thread.
