42 Days (tomato) - question

Tania · February 11, 2006

Does anyone know if the tomato "42 days" is RL or PL?
In the picture from R.Kraft it looks more like it is a potato leaf... Is it?

My '42 Days' seedling is definitely a RL...

I'll start 5 more seeds, just to make sure...

I wish somone would answer this question about the 42 day tomato as I also would like to know about it.

Does it realy produce in just 42 days ("WOW" ) & does it have another name besides a 42 day tomato .

Tania-
Is this another name for Kimberly? One of the sites (and unfortunately I can't remember which one) referred to it as the "42 day wonder". Just curious. V/G

Val,

if is it another name for Kimberly then I don't have the correct one! Mine is RL (which is just one seedling), but I've started 4 more seeds to verify the leaf type.

I'd definitely watch it to see if it leaves up to '42 days' expectation

I'll keep you guys posted on how early it really is.

not sure if its relevant - but they say Fourth of July is 42, DTM ~ if you say you have RL ~ Tom

the 42 days has to be from tranplant.

Best thing to do may be to just email Reinhard Kraft and ask him about the leaf shape. The variety is not in the latest SSE yearbook.
