Happy Growing,

Sean

Sean, If I already shared these seeds and i am growing them again, then they must be excellent, at least for my garden conditions, so I hope they do as well for you.

Robert, thank you for the offer, I prefer very sweet tomatoes, with a bit of acid to make the flavor interesting.

Pretty darn good looking list you got there if you ask me.

Thank you for the kind words, which turned out to be prophetic, because I just added #102!

Here's hoping for something cool to come from the KARMA F2. They are just starting to set for me here. I will get some pics up

I would LOVE to see some F2 photos. Maybe you'll get cherries. if not, well, I do have a bunch of F2s I saved, I might grow out some PL ones. Hoping for F3s of course.

Thats way too many to go through and post, but if you find the thread with same title only 2015/2016, you can see what I am growing again, and you'll have your answer. Hope that helps.

Best of Luck!

I feel the challenge calling! Heee.

Everyone says how good that one tastes, but more seeds from another kind lady are on the way as insurance.

No this cross is from Jason Haynes, Tollie is his handle at another forum. He is the breeder of Sgt. Peppers and many others.

Your list is out and once again it is THE most popular thread on the forum. Your list as usual is outstanding! I hope that you have a much better season than last year and that you get to enjoy some amazing tomatoes.

I think that you will enjoy Rose. It is one of my top 10 and is hard to bump off.

Tormato · July 21, 2016

Start Rose a few days early. If it doesn't germinate, there's a forum to use.

Or, PM me your address.

Thanks Patti. You really think it's that popular of a thread? I didn't realize it.

Ricky Shaw · July 21, 2016

An extensive array, beautiful. Nice to see Elgin Pink if my seeds goes bust, it has done exceptional in the dry heat. The plant is in better overall shape than the Brandy Boys and while not as many fruit sets, better formed and less cat facing.

Good luck.

Thanks Ricky. I just loved Elgin Pink this past season. It was a lot healthier and had great fruit set.
I am looking forward to Green Gables and Cherokee Lime, they were neck snd nech for best greens I have tasted last season. Also Reinhard Kraft's GWR Heart, I cant even wait on that. And and and.....

ginger2778 · July 21, 2016

Tormato, sending you a pm. Thanks Gary. BTW- see anything that peaks your interest?

327 views in < 24 hours. That's impressive!

It's like the Academy Awards for tomatoes and if a tomato made the list, the tomato won an Oscar.

And for the tomatoes that got shunned (ie was on 2015 list, but didn't make it for 2016) is like getting a bad review from a food critic.

Have a wonderful season!

Thanks Barb. I got a good giggle out of that one.

kath · July 22, 2016

Wow- another great list, Marsha! I don't know how you do it twice a year!

You've got a whole lot more energy than I have.

Hope you have an outstanding season and enjoy every tomato.

Noooo, I only do it once per year. The season in S.FL. hasn't had a frost in at least the last 6 years, so I start in September, and they just go all the way to early June.

Thank you for the nice wishes.

Allisa · July 22, 2016

Impressive list! Good luck! I like to read someone lists to learn of what people repeat from the previous seasons and learn about new varieties I've never heard before. I can't even imaging the season from September to June. How tall the indeterminates get 'til the end of the growing season? How do you support them?
