I never spray, seem I manage to get pretty good production before inevitable disease hits.

It looks like my Kazachka mini-beefsteak.

GGWT is Girl Girl's Weird Thing. It is a dark tomato with striping.

Probably shouldn't have waited so long to ask but if anyone would like to grow out the F3 this season, I'd be happy to send out some seeds. I could use some help to discover more variations. Just ask that if you get anything good you would post the results and send some seeds back. I can send out 50 seeds total.

How nice of you to offer seeds of this great sounding tomato! I'd love a few seeds.
What are calling it? Is "Nice Purple Cross" the name?

No name yet. Let's see what develops as it is grown out. Might name itself. Please PM me with address and the number of seeds you can use. One fellow has already requested seeds. You'll be the second. I appreciate your help.

Yes, sorry, I hadn't had much time to think about a seed offer and when I finally did, I knew it was a bit late.
Your welcome to next seasons F4

Well I got mine in the mail yesterday and I am stoked. My seeds won't be planted till April 1 for a June 1 garden planting provided the weather stays nice.

I'm mainly focused on Joseph's Landracers this year and Dirtly Girl OP's but something fun like this I couldn't pass up.

Thanks Marc I'll be sure and keep you posted my dude! If I get a really nice plant with good fruit I will surely send back some of the seeds to you if you like.

Your generosity will be noted and I'll take good care of your lil hippies you sent my way..I'll send pics when they get going good in July/August.

Thanks to the 6 gardeners who offered to grow some of these.
Seeds have been mailed to all parties. Hope you all have a great season.
