Tomatoes 2018 - What will you be attempting to grow this year

[MarkPelican]

I seem to have chosen the right time to sow. 14 (+) varieties germinated already (4 days after sowing).

[Scoot]

Cut down to 4 varieties this year which i sowed 3 of today. 12 Sungold, 5 Pink Charmer, 1 Ananas Noire.

Had my gardeners delight in for a month now as it was old seed and i wanted to see if it was viable or whether i needed to order more. They all germinated. I need to pick 4 out of the 20+ that germinated.

[jackarmy]

Heehee, i know the feeling scoot. I sowed a whole packet of cayenne that was o o d in 2013 , looks like the whole lot germinated

[Scoot]

Couldn't believe how many germinated.

Once ive picked the best 4, I'll give a few away to friends and neighbours.

[Scoot]

My tomato seeds popped up today. Only sowed them 4 days ago. Sungold and Pink Charmer. Only waiting for the Ananas Noire to come up now.

It's my first time growing any tomato that has fruits bigger than 'Shirley', and black/purple and white tomatoes.

Loads of reviews for most of those tomatoes on this thread by our grapes - really worth a read.

I had a Thompson and Morgan £5 voucher so I now have another three tomato types to add to my list. Black Russian, sweet baby and superweet are all new ones for me.
