growing tomatoes in the PNW - Page 4

I was making my new list when I decided to go looking for this thread. What a bad memory I have. I will cross off silver fir tree and beavercreeklodge. I'm going to try to stick with early ones.
Stupice
Gregori's altai How different can our climates be Mary?
Black prince`
Nepal

Those are maybe sure. Some that aren't too certain here but as Alix says soooo good worth the risk like Earl's faux. still time to play. Any one else?

I've got 3" seedlings under lights.

Reliable varieties I've grown many times:
Cherokee Purple
Paul Robeson
Thessaloniki
Black Krim

New to me this year:
Marble Stripe
Brandywine Red
Brandywine OTV
Pruden's Purple
Box Car Willie
Kellogg's Breakfast
Sandul Moldovan
Great White
Cherokee Green
Aunt Ruby's German Green
Earl of Edgecombe
Omar's Lebanese
Cuostralee
Black Zebra
Marianna's Peace
Dora

I decided to dump all my extra early toms and cherries, and try to find a few new ones to add to my "keepers" list. More variety is the main goal.
Some of them might be too late for the Portland area but we'll give them a chance.
Hoping for another early start to summer. Last season was one of the best ever.
