I love that you tried reviving some older seeds. What other older seeds did you experiment this year?

:RE Thank you all!

vespertino, only grown this year from old seeds, Spanish heirloom tomato seeds:
-Mansilla de las mulas
-cabezon de la sal
-tirvia
-arenxabaleta mozcorra

All very good tasting tomatoes

[QUOTE=Whwoz;757588]Looking really Good Nico.:D The ramallets that I grew this very wet summer have not held :evil::cry:. Will have another go this season coming up[/QUOTE]
You have to pick them unripe (or half ripe). For example for Pequenito, picked unripe they stored 3-4 months, picked ripe they kept almost the same as any tomato.

I think they are going to be the biggest tomatoes in my garden, Garrote bicolor a giant as always, lietor is a super productive plant of also big tomatoes, chapman several years with it and always very large tomatoes and perhaps which has surprised me the most. It has been Kellogg´s breakfast, it is my second year of cultivation and last year its tomatoes were not that big, this year they are very big tomatoes. Tdoos tomatoes cover half a kilo

Wonderful tomatoes Nico

Mocha splash
 

Salpicaduras de moca.
Un tomate precioso, no me esperaba que supiera tan bien de sabor, son tomates realmente preciosos, creo que una vez tuve en mi jardín una planta igual o muy parecida que no recuerdo su nombre que no sabian tan bien como mocha splas

Great, great great, I think the taste is like "Negro de Arizcuren"

Thank you very much Anneliese, I do not know that variety that you commit

That is "Negro de Arizcuren

Anneliese you have more variety of seeds from Spain than me! :shock:, next year I would like to try those tomatoes, I think they are tomatoes from Navarra that is in the north of Spain

You are right.

Happy to see some of my babies in that list

Paco, glad to hear that you like it.

We do our best, but there is still a lot to do. I'm doing this at my spare time, wich is limited.

I still have to add all the descriptions of the varieties cultivated 2020, but it is almost done. Poquito a poquito (Little by little).

Kind regards

I have an interest in tomatoes from Spain. This year I'm trying Karkiano. Unfortunately I don't know much about this variety yet but I'm trying to get information from someone who has grown this variety in the past.
Is there anyone on this thread who may know about this variety ? I would appreciate any information on Karkiano.

Dan

I don't cultivated this variety.

But here some information.

It is a variety cultivated in The Basque Country. It's also known as Karkizano. Records of the regional seed bank states, it's from the town Elgóibar, in the province of Gipuzkoa.

Weights around 300gr-600gr. Beafsteak type. Mature late, around 155 days.

Your side of Spanish tomatoes is interesting. I also regularly grow a lot of Spanish varieties (I have seeds from Baikal), this year I will grow six new varieties from Nico as well.

Looks like a strong & very healthy plant as do most all of your plants in the pics I've seen. Have you ever grown Karkiano before ?.

Dan

NO - I grow it the first time..

Thank you very much for sharing your pic of Karkiano. I don't sow my seeds till the first week in April and usually don't get ripe fruit till the first week of August mostly because I don't grow early maturing varieties any longer. But I'm looking forward to growing Karkiano this year.
