2015 Belgium Yentlslike
So, after a minor setback (cats "attacked" growbox), my list for 2015 tomatoes:
Hydroponic system almost finished (there's a leak in my T-connection, so have to buy new one), but all will be OK by the time I can plant the seedlings. Also building a protecting rain cover. Pictures will follow! SiL PS: to administrator: I started new thread because (now banned) Snugglekitten was "taking over" my topic. |

What a nice list! You have some very productive and delicious varieties there. And one or 2 that I haven't heard of.
Enjoy! |

Agree that you have a mighty fine list! Sounds like a very careful plan to harden off and care for them, too. Looking forward to seeing your pics.

thanks Ginger and Kath,
indeed I first bought & read the book "Epic Tomatoes", then Icontacted Eddy, a well known breeder here in Belgium, and then took the time to look and read about all varieties in Tatianas seedbase. I would order another few but not this first year, grts |

That's a fantastic operation! You can wear a white lab coat in your garden. I'm usually a dirty, muddy mess in my tomato patch.

Is that real grass? everything looks so NEAT and clean.
Your seedlings, what type of container are they growing in?
