obsessive compulsive tomato disorder- OCTD - Page 6

I think I just gave OCTD to a new T'ville member. Do you think a package with 350 varieties in it would do it?

Oh Boy, they're in trouble. You're such an enabler!

Tormato is the chief enabler!

On the plus side the package arrived, and the response is that it may take more than one year to trial them all.

You don't have to grow 50 or 100 or more plants to have OCTD. My space is limited because I grow most varieties in a small greenhouse. I haven't had much luck with outdoor varieties when the weather is normal here. The season's too short. This year I'm growing 17 varieties (24 plants with giveaways). Maybe I have another form of the condition, OCTSAD: Obsessive Compulsive Tomato Seed Acquisition Disorder. I now have seeds for 233 varieties.

The same here. It won't be much more than twentysomething.. but given the small area, it is going to look like obsession anyway.. :-)
(or alternately: very efficient use of limited space! Something to celebrate!)

In your defense, Tormato, he did say he wanted to start a collection...
