Girl Girl's Weird Thing
GGWT was one of my favorite tomatoes this year. Seeds came from Marsha I took a few cuttings last weekend to root for fall garden planting. Should have planted more than one of these!
Yesterday, I brought one to the mayor of the booming metropolis of Sturgis, an avid tomato grower and runs the local hardware store. |

While mine have not been overly productive in terms of numbers they have been the largest in my garden. I picked one last night that was 16.8 oz. The plant so far has survived the septoria issues I had earlier and if the heat relents, may yet set some more fruit. (fingers crossed).

I just started Ted's seed saving process from Tania's website with Marsha's GGWT seeds. It's definitely a keeper and will be on my grow list next year again.

These pictures are making me drool! I would love to try this tomato. If it is half as good as it looks, it is a winner!

Carrie, I think I only have enough for Gardeneer, but I bet you can get seeds if you put up a request in the wanted forum, or if you wait until the MMMM, or if you wait until January when my next generation will be grown out.

If all goes well, I will be sending some GGWT into the swap and if Marsha needs I can save some for her offer too.

Thanks, Marsha, and it is nice to be able to follow this thread until then! I am really amazed at how beautiful this tomato is, and the flavor ratings are impressive!

Back in post #70 Jessleigh (origin of GGWT) offered free seed for pm! I don't what generation her seed is but that's another source as well.
I grew it from seed this year but my seedlings didn't get planted out in time and they were casualties of pesticide poisioining. I have a few seeds left from Marsha's seed offer this year and I'll be sure to get them in the ground in '17 as well. Al |
