Title: Just Whippersnapper Tomatoes
Post by: daveyboi on April 28, 2010, 23:56:52
Hi All
Sorry I have not posted anything for a while although I have been lurking on a regular basis lols

I am wondering how many of you are growing Whippersnapper tomatoes this year.
Also how far your plants have got and when did you sow them?

I sowed mine on the 13th of March and I planted mine into their final containers today. (for more details visit my blog)

I must again thank Saddad for the seeds he sent me last summer which I am now growing for my first experience of this heritage variety.

I thought there would be some much more advanced than mine TwoFlower ... I will be interested in when you get your first fruits. Are they outdoors now or still on the window sill?

Saddad were yours sown at your usual time or later because of the cold winter?

Just to say thank you Saddad again
I had my first tomato from the plants today and it did not make it any further than the plot.
It was very flavoursome!
;D ;D ;D
