Outdoor Gardiner's Delight and Marmande

[meg_gordon]

I got seeds for both of these from a gardiner's magazine, but they say they are for outdoor growing only - I grew both last year (different seeds) in my greenhouse - anyone know what the difference is?

Hi Meg,
I'm  no, expert  :-\ only been at this growing lark for 3 years, and I've always grown the GD outside, I've wonderful crops off them , so last year grew more varieties outside (due to the fact I had no room in the greenhouse for them)Marmande being one of them, unfortunately they all succumbed to blight :-[.

so don't take up space in the green house for GD, they do fine outside......as for Marmande !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!sorry can't help there, but I'm sure the guys on here will answer you.

I grow both of these varieties, both indoor and outside. indoor for earliness and protection, outdoor 'cos I run out of room indoors!!
both are fine!! ;)

I didn't have much luck last year with my indoor Marmandes so this year they are outdoors along with the GD's.

I have stopped growing outdoor tmatoes cos for the last 3 years they have succumbed to the dreaded blight.

I have about 5 other types of toms for the greenhouse, so I will try the GD and marmande outside.  I am in the west of Scotland though, so we dont have as long a summer for ripening - but I am POSITIVE we are going to get a lovely summer this year - so here goes :)

Thanks for the help guys.
