Why Tomato Grafts are like Monty Python Quotes
I'm not dead yet!" ... "I'm not dead, I'm not dead, I'm getting better, I don't want to go on the cart, I feel fine I think I'll go for a walk...
My daily new tomato graft observations. Look at grafts in their humidity test, they look to be in various versions of a sort of OK state Take them out for some air Ruh roh, I think I killed them. Back in humidity Sad droop for a day or so I'm not dead yet! Of my four attempts I have: 1: I think I'll go for a walk 1: I'm getting better 1: I'm not dead yet 1: Almost certainly nearly dead Stacy |

Every graft is sacred,
every graft is great! If a graft is wasted, God gets quite irate! |

Sorry for the drift, but I haven't read through all the named dwarf variety projects so please excuse my ignorance. But is there a Dwarf Norwegian Blue? Or a Roger the Shrubber? What about an Albatross?
