Tomato Grow Lists 2017

[zeedman]

Not as many as last year, I'm focusing more on peppers & eggplant this year.

• Cherry Roma (just like it sounds)
• Elfin (OP red grape, my favorite tomato)
• Gilbert Italian (large paste)
• Gruchovka (small pink, very early)
• Nicoviotis Orange (medium-sized orange slicer)
• Quebec 1121 (determinate red paste, very early)
• Red House Free Standing (determinate red, acid, strong upright stems)
• Roughwood Golden Plum (yellow/orange paste)
• Sojourner South American (very large oxheart)
• Tiffen Mennonite (potato leaf, pink slicer)

Nine plants per variety, I will transplant the 6 strongest of each, and give away the rest. The plants are not very big yet; given that wet weather has delayed transplanting in recent years, I started them April 15th, a week later than previously. Beautiful day today, all plants are outside enjoying the sun (and the breezes to help strengthen the stems).

TMI, that is quite an impressive list... hard to believe you grow anything other than tomatoes.

Lets see if I can remember them all right off, probably not but I'll give it a try.

Processing Patch for juice and sauce
PP Rutgers - just Rutgers but showed up a few seasons ago, produces more heavily and more determinate than before and stayed stable since ten
Utah Heart - big red oxheart type from Lofthouse "early all kinds mix" in 2015
Red Producer - medium sized heavy production volunteered in 2016 from Lofthouse "early all kinds mix" in 2015
TMI Heart -1 from Tom's landrace mix in 2016
TMI Heart -2 from Tom's landrace mix in 2016
TMI Big Round - softball sized very round, may be moved to slicer patch as it is orange rather than red- from Tom's landrace mix in 2016
Local Heart - supposed to be local heirloom, large pink oxheart, may be dropped after this year because of pink color, and susceptible to spotting
Plum Regal pear tomato F4

Slicer patch for fresh eating
Cherokee Purple grown several generations in my garden
Pineapple grown for several generations in my garden
Frosty Volunteer, both normal and potato leaf sprouted last year and survived low twenties, might be F2 of hybrid Brandy Boy
Mountain Fresh F2
Brandy Boy F3
Big Slicer Mix - large sweet slicers form past years volunteers, unknown heritage


Dwarf types all new to me except for MN Stumpy
MN Stumpy - three foot plants with small to medium red fruits not a favorite flavor wise by not bad either, and I like the tamer growth habit from Tom's mix
Maralinga - Supposed to be descended from Cherokee Purple - Dwarf Tomato Project
Golden Gypsy - Dwarf Tomato Project
Tasty wine - Dwarf Tomato Project Brandywine descendent
Bush Early Girl

Disease tolerant trial
Warrior
Rugged Boy

Heat Tolerant trial
Florida 91

Volunteers
Plants rescued from tilled areas and planted by along the fences, usually current or current crosses

I think that pretty much covers it although I'm sure I forgot a couple.

[add] Yep, I forgot some of Joseph's wild crosses, one of of them needs isolated. I need to look up which one that is. I'll stick it over in the other garden with the field corn and melons.

Big
- Black Russian X 2
- Brandywine
- Beefmaster
- Cherokee Purple
- Roma

Little
- Sungold X 2
- Floridity

I've already got flowers set on most of them...
