It looks like I will have the Mongolskyi Karlik seeds soon. It was a great pleasure. Thanks to Korney 19.
As for the selection of another determinant variety so I will create a list of varieties that seem to me fit for my growing in the hot bed. Than I will upload this list here and ask you Tomatoville members to help me with the selection of varieties. Vladimír PS.: I have an offer many interesting varieties of seeds from RJGlew.. I just have to choose well. Last edited by MrBig46; September 27, 2017 at 12:27 PM. |

Season 2018
I want to sow very early determinant tomato varieties already on November 21st. It's a month earlier than last year when I sowed them on December 21st. At the beginning of April, I want to plant plants with already small fruit (not just flowering). Beyond the Mongolskyi Karlik variety I will not try any new variety. I will cultivate the varieties that have proven to me this year (0-33, M-22, Sarayev Shtambovyi and Sophie's Choice) as well as some varieties from the unsuccessful year 2015 when the bacterial spots destroyed all of these determinant tomatoes. They will: Iceberg (Glacier) Sarayev Gruntovyi Jagodka (favorite tomato of Joseph) Stupické polní rané Sarayev Otbor 1 (tomato, whose seeds have brought me a bacterial spots)- I need to clean the seeds of Sarayev Otbor 1 by dipping in bleach or in warm water according to the following instructions: „ If it is not possible to acquire disease-free tomato seeds, your seeds should be submerged for one minute in 1.3% sodium hypochlorite, which helps eliminate bacteria on their surface. Another option exists in submerging the seeds in 122-degree Fahrenheit water for 25 minutes. This will affect surface and inner seed bacteria, but might adversely affect the plant’s germination.“ Vladimír |

Awesome plan to start so early! I look forward to your results.
With regards the seed treatment, will you be able to tell if it was successful, while still at the seedling stage? |

Take care, Vladimir. When making the solution, you must put sodium hypochlorite in water, not water in sodium hypochlorite

This has been a long thread. I might given an opinion.
Anyway , I recommend Silvery Fir Tree. I think it is originally from Russia. It is real eraly, about 60 DTM, It sets lots of tomatoes of about 4 to 7 oz. But the taste is on the acidic side. It is a very compact vaiety , about 2 ft tall but bushy. I have grown it in 4 gallon pot successfully. It has always been my first ripe tomato of the season.

http://tatianastomatobase.com/wiki/Silvery_Fir_Tree But note at the bottom of Tania's link that she also lists it as carrot like. That's a problem as well since http://tatianastomatobase.com/wiki/Carrot-Like Andrey from Minsk says that SFT and CL have two different genetic backgrounds. As you can see from the links above I've grown both and regardless of backgrounds I didn't like either one. I think I already posted in this thread about the early det's I would grow,which are few, and I'm not going to go back and see if I did such a post. It doesn't have a high priority on my lengthy to do list right now. Carolyn

Between 2016 and 2017, these varieties did not work for me: Sarayev Druzhnyi, I-22, Sarayev Stoikyi, Latah, Darinka F1, Kalinka, Urbikany, Maglia Rosa, Mountain Princess. The others I've grown will be tested in 2018 (I'm still not sure if it's 42 days too).
I do not have a place for other varieties. I will try the other recommended varieties only in 2019: Silvery Fir Tree, Ondraszek,….. Valerian, thank you for your reminders. I will use a bleaching agent sold under the name SAVO - 5%. I do not have a sous vide 'machine. In Russian -под вакуумом, in Czech- ve vakuu Vladimír |

Vladimir, I'm sorry you're sick, and I hope the antibiotics let you feel better soon. It's good that you got the hotbed seeds in! I look forward to hearing how they perform.
Get well, Nan |
