  • Huge truss on Tigerella tomato

    One of my tigerella tomato plants (seeds supplied by Jillyreeves) first truss has 40 flowers on it, the 2nd looks like doing the same and the third

    I don't want any advice, I'm just boasting

      I reckon I'm getting the kudos now Nicos, before the plant decides to drop over half the flowers

      I'll show you a photo if you are interested, I didn't know if it was commonish or not.

            1st truss at bottom of photo, counted at over 40 flowers.
            2nd truss at top of photo, looks like being the same.

            3rd truss out of view, looks same again.

                It has a cracking flavour too. One of my often-grown varieties.

                  Here you go, an updated photo.
                  There's 20 tomatoes formed and growing and another 20 odd flowers still to go. Five tomatoes formed and growing on the 2nd truss too, many flowers to come after that.

                  I don't know whether to feed this plant way more than normal or not, it seems to be OK atm.

                      It's my tame Peruvian long tailed leopard sneaking around the tomatoes.

                      Just happens to look like a banana skin

                        I thought my tig's were doing well, but not that well. They are doing the best out my lot so far. I can see the stripy markings on the green fruit tho
