Default Got My 2021 Grow List Together

I finally got my list together and will be growing one of each of the following. CC indicates these seeds came from Carolyn's seeds that Farmer Shawn distributed last year. I didn't have room to do them all last year so will try the remainder this year. I've never grown a heart shaped tomato before so this should be interesting. Hopefully the eastern European varieties will be OK here in Georgia!

Tomato, Bella Rosa
Tomato, Creole Original
Tomato, Early Annie
Tomato, Early Girl Bush
Tomato, “Fake Annie” (Grew 2 Early Annie last year and one was PL, not RL. Fruit similar but might taste better than Early Annie. This year's will be from the saved seed)
Tomato, German Johnson (CC)
Tomato, Homestead
Tomato, Honigsüsser Erlöser, orange heart, CC
Tomato, Inzhir Rosovyi , ribbed pink pear shape, "Pink Fig" from Russia CC
Tomato, KBX
Tomato, King Kong (CC)
Tomato, Koroleva Rynka 19) RL indet “Market Queen” from Siberia, CC
Tomato, Marianna's Peace
Tomato, Mom's Paste
Tomato, Purple Russian (CC)
Tomato, Red Siberian
Tomato, Rio Grande
Tomato, Rosella Cherry
Tomato, SOTW
Tomato, Super Sioux
Tomato, Süsse Friesin pale red, egg-shaped cherry, CC "Sweet Friesin"
Tomato, Vladyka Pink heart from Siberia, CC

Here's my list:
Cherokee Purple
Cherokee Green
Kellogg's Breakfast (I wanted KBX, but it wasn't available from the place I ordered a few seeds from this year).
Black Krim
Sun Gold (the only hybrid to make the cut)
Aunt Ruby's German Green (a first for me)
Opalka
Brandywine
Pink Berkeley Tie Dye

I've never grown a heart-shaped tomato yet either. I'll likely try one in 2022.

Hearts are to me favorites. I grow at least eight different varieties every year. My three favorites are Orange Russian 117, Brad's Black Heart and Alice.

I'd love to try KBX. I've heard lots of good things about it. Thank you for your kind offer.

My plan for the 2021 season is focused on lb resistant varieties as Phytophthora ruined my crops last year quite early and very fast. Numbers of plants are still fluid and the list is far from closed.


Lb resistant varieties:
Mountain Magic F1; Crimson Crush F1; Cocktail Crush F1;

Lb resistance testees:
Consuelo F1; Matt's Wild Cherry; Mountaineer Delight; Mountaineer Pride; Galahad F1, Defiant PhR F1; Koralik

Non-resistant varieties:
Start F1; Tomato Berry F1; Nelinka F2; Kumato F2 and perhaps Tornado F1.

This is my initial list:
Pink Slicers: Estler's Mortgage Lifter, Winsall

Red Slicers: Willow's Bulgarian(AKA Unknown Bulgarian named for a granddaughter), BL8 Magnum (renamed by me to Blake's Magnum since grandson Blake wanted a tomato with his name on it ten years ago, hence the renaming), A.H. Scorpii, Polish Monster.

Blacks: Clear Lake Heirloom, Big Cheef, Roger's Best Black

Red Hearts: Canadian Heart, Anzhela Gigant

Pink Hearts: Hungarian Heart, Koral Londona, Babushkino Byche Serdtse,Bliznetsy, Yasha Yugoslavian

Yellow/Orange: Kellogg's Breakfast or KBX or both, Orange Russian 117, Wisconsin 55 Gold, G.G.'s Yellow Belgian (shortened to G's Yellow Belgain since another grandson, Gerik affectionately called G, wanted his name attached to a tomato also), Nelson's Gold

In an earlier thread it was decided to attempt to grow out the oldest of the seed inventory taking up space and give the seedlings away. We shall see what happens.
from 2002:Cherokee Purple
2004: OTV Brandywine, Lillian's Yellow
2006: Zogola, Rozavyi Izumni, Aventuniai
2007: Tom's Yellow Wonder, Orange Russian 117, Ashleigh
2008: Reif Red Heart, Oleyar's German, Mortgage Lifter(not sure which one), Big Rainbow

Lots of 2009 seeds but maybe they will keep for next year.
