Thank you Andrey, those are all new varieties to me. And you are right, going by days from transplant adds unnecessary confusion.

Now I wish I had a big enough garden to try all these varieties and see what grows well in Houston. We actually have a need for early varieties that can withstand heat.

In my garden, Stupice had a nice flavor, but was not all that productive. The year I grew it was the year that some type of wilt killed everything, so it didn't really have a fair run that year. The year I grew Matina, it was way more productive than Stupice, but virtually flavorless. We had very heavy rains that year, which may have reduced flavor. If not diseased, Stupice might have been more productive. Early Wonder has actually been a good tomato for me, but a lot of other people have found it flavorless. I think growing conditions have a lot to with it personally.

Keith,
I just may take you up on that offer as I will need another go at Stupice next year. My TGS seeds have all germinated well, but none of the plants at 4 different locations have thrived or produced well. Thanks for the offer and will contact you later....JJ61 |
