I got a late start on my Fall tomato plants---They are 4 weeks behind what they should of been.

I grew Trust tomatoes for the Fall crop cause they produce better with less sunlight than the big beef.

I was disappointed with how long it took the big beef to produce their first tomatoes but was very pleased with the tomatoes once they finally got here which took a total of 4 months. That was a long wait. The Trust tomatoes have produced alot sooner than the Big Beef. I dont know how the Trust tomatoes taste yet and cant wait to find out. The Trust tomatoes are a Greenhouse beefsteak tomato that should be smooth and produce 7oz tomatoes. Looks like I will have vine ripe tomatoes a week before Thanksgiving. I sure did get a late start.

I will still grow the Big Beef next spring but will grow Trust early spring first so i can have tomatoes earlier.

What i hate most of all is the poly on the greenhouse ---taking it off during the summer. Its a drag. There is just no economical way to cool the greenhouse and save money at the same time. Its a shame that it takes money to save money, takes money to make money. The cheepest is to just Use Huge Attic type Fans for Greenhouses. I dont have any yet but will next year.
