The rest are truly excellent, esp. Pr.Purp. and Stump. Vorlon and NAR and CP are pretty darned good though.you really can't go wrong with those either. |

Sugar drops in my garden had not a speck of antho. Hmmm, my seeds from JandL, and Lee thinks there are some stability issues. I thought this one was OK, since it grew true in my garden.

Several of mine look like the one pictured. It seems to only show up at about that size. Either way I'm excited to see what the fruit looks like 😁

Nice thread! My season won't start for another month, so it's fun to see what others are accomplishing.
Congratulations on getting married! |

Looks like your Indian Stripe is a mystery plant since it is supposed to be regular leaf. Should be fun to see what you get!

I just checked my sent mail, and you did indeed request ISPL, so those are growing true! Good news, right? Last edited by ginger2778; May 3, 2015 at 05:54 PM. Reason: Fact checking |

I believe so Marsha, I will have to check but I think so?
(Edit)**Very good news as I was looking forward to that variety and considering the sugar drop is likely a cross I'd prefer that the rest grow true. Thanks for helping clear that up! Last edited by BigVanVader; May 3, 2015 at 06:57 PM. |

Things are moving along nicely. I went to a local tailgate market that started this weekend. It was nice to be in a more relaxed setting and I sold a lot of plants. I enjoy telling people about heirlooms so much, and it was mostly retired folks there and they seemed to really enjoy hearing about them.
My tomatoes are really taking off now and most are covered in blooms. It hasnt rained in 10 days and I havent had to water anything. Overall the no till beds are performing remarkably well. When I was driving in my stakes I would hit areas where the soil was really soft (which never happens in our clay) and then today I saw the first tomato . Another hectic but rewarding week. Here are some pics. Enjoy! |
