Gitagal wrote: My "Sun Golds" and my "Mortgage Lifter" have produced well so far. I have taken loads of seeds from both. There are a couple others that are not worth the ground they are on. There is one that I am not sure what it is--but i KNOW that I took a broken off top from a Lg. pot of a Tomato plant from Bonnies plants. I think it was an heirloom--"Beefmaster" (??) or "Big Beef" (?). Another one I rescued may be the mama of these pear-shaped ones. Just had a cutting...no tag. This Tomato plant is producing (very few..) pear-shaped small Tomatoes. They are smoky colored--like a "Cherokee Purple". Don't know what this one is. Haven't tasted it yet. 1--NOID Tomato (??) 2--Sun Golds--these are sweet as candy--just pop them in your mouth as you walk by. Great one to grow! A Hybrid, though--and it "sported" on me last year. I planted the seeds from the "sport" this spring -- and got the Sun Gold Cherries again. Go figure.... Cukes were total c--p...Nothing to even have for a salad. BAD!!! The Romaine I tried to grow, early this spring, did OK--and then half of them started having some kind of crown rot? The whole plant just lifted off the ground with no roots. Later--I did harvest about 3--but this will, definitely, be a one-time experiment. Been there--done that-- My 2 Green peppers have not produced anything either... I don't think my yard is suited for vegetable gardening....so--why keep trying?? Gita |
