2013 Bwaynef Grow List
This year I'm trying something new. Basically, I'm crowd-sourcing the renewal of my seeds since a lot of what I have are older or in pretty limited supply.
First, what I'm growing in my yard: Olena Ukrainian Black Krim Neves Azorean Red KBX Pink Berkeley Tie-Dye Porter 'Charles Herring' Pervaya Lyubov** Big Beef F1 Cherokee Purple*** Arkansas Traveler Jaune Flamme **Still waiting on this one to arrive ***Consider replacing this. (Marianna's Peace or Belmonte) It wasn't hard to find local friends willing to be given free heirloom tomato plants. The catch was that they give me a tomato or 2 from what grows throughout the year ...and I'll save the seeds from them. Here's the list I've come up with based on their input: #1 Jaune Flamme Casino Chips Marglobe Supreme Stump of the World Beauty King #2 Black from Tula Japanese Trifele Black Garden Peach Kellogg's Breakfast #3 Lyuda's Mom's Lg. Red Ukrainian Aunt Ruby's German Green Green Zebra White Wonder Brandywine OTV Brandywine Red 'Landis' #4 Gary O'Sena Big Beef OP Homestead Prudens Purple #5 Weisnicht's Ukr. German Johnson Hillbilly Razzleberry OP Austin's Black Cherry Virginia Sweets Tiny Tim Uncle Charlie's Sweet 100s #6 Big Beef F1 Moneymaker Beefsteak Mortgage Lifter 'Estler' Rutgers #7 Opalka San Marzano Marglobe Supreme Yellow Wonder Costoluto Genovese #8 Green Giant Yellow Pear Cherry **Double-check this** Red Cherry Tomato #9 Sekai Ichi Marianna's Peace Black from Tula I tried to limit overlapping varieties between people (and myself) to maximize the help I was able to crowd source. My favorite folks were the ones that said, "Surprise me". I'm a little late getting everything started, but plan to plant tonight. (I've been waiting on my peppers to come up and trying to get feedback from my participants.) |
