Title: 2007 - Tomatoes
Post by: Chris Graham on August 11, 2007, 15:25:11
To my surprise I haven't seen a thread for 2007 Tomatoes yet, so here it is.

These are Sungold (only manageing a few at a time and the only plants which have some ripe fruit).

The biggest ones are Japanese Black Trifle from Ruud, the medium ones at the back are Siberian from City Chick, the purple cherry toms are Black Cherry, Yellow one is Sunbelle and the small cherry toms are Mexico Midget from City Chick. I had a bumper crop despite tomato blight and giving away a lot. I'm going to try making dry tomatoes with Mexico Midget. :)
