Also, I was told that Kirkagac variety belonged to strain 637 with more round-shaped fruits but the plant I grew had elongated fruits which is characteristics to Kirkagac (standard variety). Information I have found so far is a little bit confusing so we need to see how your fruits will come up.

Here's a quick update on project progress, with some of the tomatoes in it: http://anatohum.com/phpBB3/viewtopic...=66&p=107#p107

An update on the project tomatoes:

- There is a variety of which seeds were mixed up with another determinate red variety, Corum Red. I thought this mysterious variety was a cherry; however, fruit sizes indicate a small-fruited variety instead of a cherry (first two pictures). Funny thing is that there is an odd-shaped fruit on it (second picture).
- Third picture belongs to a small-medium size red variety.
- Fourth picture belongs to Yildiz, a lobbed, medium size and red fruited variety. I am particularly excited about this one due to its unique shape.

Looking forward to next years growout

Chance, I finally got the Word doc done for my very shortened SSE listings done today, so now I can get back to sending those Turkish tomato seeds to you and other varieties to a few other folks.

And yes, if you put a link here it takes me to your other site. I never registered at the other one, as you know, b'c I just couldn't see dealing with two sites. Am I wrong in just staying at this thread?

I'm all for any PL tomato varieties and I have looked at the pictures of what you have now, but we can discuss this later, I would imagine.

Carolyn, yes, as long as you can view the topics through the links, you can use this thread; however, if it becomes overwhelming for me to post in two places, I will probably prefer the project page but in any case I will send you seeds for the varieties I have been growing (and I will share pictures with you). The sole purpose of the project forum is to build sort of a database for Turkish varieties so while I am OK with PMs through Tomatoville for volunteering, I would greatly appreciate if folks can also sign up for the varieties at anatohum.com, again only because coordinating between two forums may become difficult sometimes. Otherwise there is no condition to contribute to/volunteer for the project, and to receive seeds.

So far, I haven't come across any PL varieties but I do have supposedly large pink varieties. I am hoping that the weather conditions will allow them to set fruits. Plant in the picture is an indeterminate, regular leaf variety with large pink fruits. Variety name is Kuzu's Balikesir Pink, where Balikesir is a town in western Turkey. I am guessing that it will start setting fruits in 10 days.

Chance,

I visited the website and it looks like you have all the volunteers you need. If you need help in the future with any tomato or pepper varieties I would be more than happy to assist.

My wife and I visited Antalya about 8 years ago and really enjoyed ourselves. In fact, I still call it the best vacation ever. Roman ruins, whitewater rafting the Duden River, Termessos, Perge, great food, etc. Simply spectacular.

We were quite impressed with the tomatoes and peppers we ate. Very interesting stuff

Mike

Mike, you can still sign up for the varieties you are interested in, still enough seeds for more volunteers.

I am glad that you have nice memories of your visit. I used to go to Antalya every summer with my family when I was a kid, and loved it.

Chance, do you know if you can get seeds for Maras Biberi Peppers? I have looked everywhere and no one sells seeds. I buy marash pepper flakes and would love to grow this one for sure, what a great pepper for everything from rice, to chicken to salads, yum!

[chancethegardener]

Maras is in my grow list for Spring 2013 and hopefully I will be able to share some seeds next fall. That's so random though, I was surprised that you use it for cooking/in salads . Where do you buy it?

There is a spice guy at the local farmer's markets and I purchased it from him. Nice little packets are a great way to try new things.

Got any good suggestions for using this pepper?
