First Pinocchio Orange Ready

GoDawgs · March 9, 2021

The Pinocchio Orange micro tomato was started Dec 14th and it's ready for the first picking.

I will taste a few and use the rest of them for seed saving. One thing I have learned about micros is that I need to stake them when they're very young as fruit set will make them lean way over. Once they're bent over there's no staking them back up. But that would be great for a hanging basket if that were the intent and that just might be what I'll do this summer. Hang them on the porch!
