Today I decided to sample my first New Big Dwarf fruit of the season. It was somewhat small at only 5 oz (most of the more mature fruit on the plant appear 50% larger), but I was just happy to make myself a nice salad along with a few Sunrise Bumblebee fruit thrown in for good measure.
The New Big Dwarf is growing in a 10 gallon fabric container and currently stands at 3.5 feet tall. The first fruit ripened 114 days from sowing and 66 days from transplant. It was pretty good tasting for an early fruit and was well-balanced. |

Here are my plants at 6 weeks after transplant. Now days are 95 and nights 58. A lot of fruit starting to set. Am getting some Interior BER on two plants.

Here was today's harvest of my 10 oz. Dwarf Caitydid, ripe after 67 days from transplant (115 from sowing). It was pretty yummy!

Very good! And, to top it off, every one of the fruit is visually stunning. |

My first Dwarf Sweet Sue was ready today - 69 days from transplant and 117 days from sowing. It weighed 8 oz (about 226 grams) and was very tasty and flavorful!

Maglia Rosa. I also decided to pull a Malee Rose plant that "randomly wilted for no reason". I kept three green tomatoes, and I think I have another plant.
