Hi all. My Red Robin are starting to flower :)What final/eventual size pot do you use with your micros. Here says 8 inch? Is that height of pot...seems big?
Thanks Galina :) Another site said keep small 9cm for fruiting but that seemed too small :)My 5 l pots areMeasurements are 22.5cm wide at the top.17.5cm wide at the bottom.17.5cm deep.So is the 7.5 the charm at Measurements are 26cm wide at the top.20cm wide at the bottom. and 20 cm deep?
I have fruit on several now, I think I left it a bit late to pollinate them so I am going to take a few cuttings and do it later, the trouble is I will have to pick something that is growing in the greenhouse to choose and most of the 20 or so varieties I am growing have really big fruits, Micro Gemma/Mega Marv or Micro Tina , Rachel Sebastian just doesn't sound right . I have Ildi in there also Sungoldand Tigerella. I do have Virginia Sweets which is a very pretty bi color but it is also very big. I wonder if the garden center has anything. I found a place tucked away a few weeks ago that I never went to usually and was surprised to see they had quite a few heirloom tomatoes. I guess I could just play. I do have 1 wild Cheesemani.
i think i will start to put my outdoor toms out this week however the smallest variety i have is idle so not very micro
Jay, I have just been in the greenhouse, with a magnifying glass, the Tiny Toes and Tiniest Toes are identical in every way.I also looked at all my micros, none of them are very happy, they got a bit neglected for a while and left in tiny pots, they have fruited but look sad. All my greenhouse tomatoes which were in the final place s a while ago are doing great. I think the micros will pick up now they are planted out . I have flowers just starting on Hoy and Cowlicks, but not Virginia Sweets. As my micros are sad I am wondering if I may be better off to sow some more specifically to catch up with Virginia Sweets rather than wait for these sad one s to heal. If I did that I could pick just 1 variety of micro to play with and grow several plants. Right now I only have one o each varietyPlease advise me, and advise re which one to choose would be great
