seeds for 2013
Hi all T'villers.
I'm asking for help to pick out a selection of varieties that would do well for my arid, hot conditions.(more than likely I'll probably be looking at splitting the season) I'm specifically looking for toms that will do well in 90+ weather, I know full well that I shouldn't expect much fruit set between August and September, but I would like for some development before and after, So far I have a small list of these but, I would like to get some input from people who have been growing for years under similar conditions. Some quick info I live in Z9 Starting late July into late August we tend to average about 95, then we drop back into eighties until early November with a few sub fifty nights scattered. Rain is minimal during the entire summer season usually with the majority coming either early spring or late fall. Any ways, I would love to grow some large beefsteaks, pastes and a few varieties of cherries. so far this is what I've come up with Haley's Purple Comet Black Cherry Striped Roman Carbon Zapotec Sungold Homestead 24 Phoenix spitfire Also I'd be delighted to hear that I could very possibly grow piriform toms, as i like their general shape. any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
