Topic: Where are your toms now?

Don't take my word for it - I have different capabilities & needs.

Read their reviews - the theory is good & they are well used commercially.

If you should want to try, they are still on offer!!

Your greenhouse is huge Tim.  Are they all tomatoes what do you do with them all, or are you growing for Tesco?   ;D

I really must get my greenhouse put up.

All except 12 Cucumbers & 2 Courgettes.

With 3 here & 5 next door during holidays, & tit for tat in the village, we rarely have a real glut.

Mine finally goot ot a couple of days ago into their final containers. I am using self watering home made Global buckets this year as  the greenhouse is a few miles away and can`t guarantee I can get there everyday.

I was ill for a week a couple of weeks ago and John  went down to water my tomatoes still in small pots, not enough, so I lost a lot that were going outside for the foodbank but managed to save enough for inside. My new Dwarf collection was at home so safe. They are in the ir final spots too now. Very precious.

All toms in GH doing well..lots greenens. Majority of the cordons have now 2 set trusses and further 2 in flower. Now I'm just waiting now for the first ones starting to chance colour.."time is slow for those who wait.." ::)
I planted 20 odd plants outside yesterday..now that the weather has finally turned back to summer.
All those are blight 'resistant' varieties that I'm trialing this years. Time will tell how they will take UK summer.
Container toms have loads of greenens but not a one have started ripening yet..early day I suppose..we did have cold spell so that slowed things down..
