I gotta say, that avatar reminds me of a bad case of carbon monoxide poisoning. Sorry.

Nope it's rather disturbing isn't it. I had a beautiful little hummingbird for awhile but Worth made fun of it, so it's gone..... I kinda like the ugly little Tomato Bob.

Default 2017/2018 MMMM questions

It remind me of a red faced version of Violet Beauregard as she's being rolled out of the Chocolate factory by the Oompa Loompas...

Thanks Nan. I'm glad that you like it. It was hard to compost that weird little guy..... I shocked myself looking at him every time that I logged on, but he served his purpose. I did not even bother to ferment him because nobody would want his progeny.

Amish Paste 4-802
Anybody know what the numbers mean? Just curious. I got a side-by-side comparison going with 4 different seed packets.

Brad's Atomic Grape does have very wispy foliage. The same wispiness as many of the heart shaped tomato plants. If your plants are contorted then that is another matter and a photo might help us to diagnose the issue.

Not sure of the MMMM year of these seeds.

1X - F3- 1 PBTD X BE

Three started, two RL, 1 PL. Now I can't remember what the BE is either. Please 'splain.

- Lisa

BE = Maybe Black Early? Not a PL though.

I'm just guessing, but Black Elephant is a PL. There is Black Ethiopian which is RL.

I hope that you figure it out.

Thanks
Here's the history on Meaty Russian.

http://tatianastomatobase.com/wiki/Meaty_Russian

My seeds were from the Patty Brown mentioned but were crossed,supposed to be red,but were typical gold/red bicolors.

So I have no idea of what's been passed around and what you might get.

I've got so many wonderful varieties that I can't grow them all this year. Many thanks again to Tormato and everybody who has participated by sending seeds!

There is one variety I'm not sure about the name, seeds from 2016. It COULD be:

0-77 or

0-JJ

Can anybody help me and tell me what to expect? Many thanks in advance! I shall grow it next year.
