My Tomato Plants as Of 06/06/13

PA_Julia · June 9, 2013

Hello everyone,

Here are my eighteen plants thus far.

I planted them in ground as of 05/06.

The strains are as follows;

Church
Delicious
Brutus Magnum
Brutus Magnum Yellow
Mega Marv
And my own Big Zac from seeds taken from my personal best of 2.86 lbs last season.

The photo's show the plants prior to me pruning all to two stems only in order to focus plant energy towards Fruit growth.

I am not growing for consumption, only for size so the methods I'm employing are somewhat different than growers that wish quantity.

I have a couple of fused blossoms at this time on a couple of different plants so I'm leaving those and removing single blooms.

The ultimate goal is to have a multiple fused blossom producing a tomato that will hopefully grow to a heavy weight, all other tomatoes are removed from the plant or not allowed to grow to begin with.

I'll keep everyone updated as to how my season is going.
