Fruit set already and some beautiful foilage

Nothing to jump up and down about being that its Red Alert but hey, anything is better than store bought. My earliest fruit set by a mile and I'm really suprised.

New Big Dwarf with very nice foilage.

Beautiful plants! When did you start them and are they growing outside? I live north of you in Portland and won't be able to put my plants out for many weeks still.

I started the Red Alert 1/1/10 and planted them out at 2/15/10. I forgot to mention that the Red Alert plants are in a swc, makes a big difference. Yes I'm growing these outside, we have had a really nice early spring here.

What is swc? I am new to growing by seed. I am also not familiar with Red Alert. Have you grown it before?

I have a LOAD of fruit set on the tomatoes I was able to over winter, they are looking great! (well except for the plant that was partially eaten by a pocket gopher).
I do have a bunch of blossoms on the Texas wild i planted out March 3rd.
YEAHHHHH fresh tomatoes on their way!
