Default 90+ DTM

OK. I know there is a dedicated Tomatopalooza fourm but this is somewhat general, hence this general thread.

If I’m coming to Tomatopalooza IV I need to know all you North Carolinians have your 90+ DTM plants in the ground. July 29th isn’t far off.

Nope...not yet! Aim is to have the driveway potted ones planted by May 1, main garden by May 15. Even my 90 day tomatoes come in earier in this climate! timing similar to last year, and things worked out just fine.

8 plants in the ground now. I hope to plant the rest by
next weekend.
So let's see.... May 31 days + June 30 days + July 29 days = 90 days....
Yep I'll be ready!

i grew sotw last year. i got seeds either from tgs or mark korney. i was picking tomatoes in about 60 maybe 62 days. i have it written down at home guessing here. but i do know they all went out 5/30 and by the end of july i had picked all varieties but for 2 and i remember those 2 by name. sotw is 80 days either from tgs site or mark's.

I agree about SOTW....it's 80 days, or so

(some sites list DTM from seed....?)

Thanks for the feed back folks. Most of the listings
I've seen were for 80 days and that 105 just spooked
me as my Stumpy transplants are behind schedule
as is....JJ61
