Profs to Johnny Tomato Clone..... (Anti-Light)

[laughingwillow]

I picked a few tomatoes this morning to marinade up in a roasted pepper/tomato dish for the evening meal.  A couple of red heirlooms from anti-light's garden were brought in along with a passle of me favs, (roma's.) ANyway, I sliced the first heirloom in half and exposed beautiful yellow flesh. They look just like a peach; yellow streaked with a hint of red. And soo tasty, too..

SO I'd like to thank anti-light for schlepping the heirloom tomato clones up the colorado mountain side last spring. Your efforts are appreciated, bro.

Off to procure a crusty loaf-o-bread......

Sounds yummy, lw!

We've got quite an abundance of beefmasters, but most of our toms were hit with fusarium.

Have to find a better place for the garden next year, I guess.

Enjoy your grub!

My two tomato plants are about spent.
We had plenty coming in 2-3 weeks ago, but no longer.

I think I overcrowded them.
But they sure were tasty and pretty on the plates with all those seeds and firm flesh.

A great way to stay away from Dr. Jelly Finger later in life.

I got tomato coming up in the earth around my CB plants in november last year. I make earth myself. I did let them grow after the CB was harvested under my 600 W HPS. Got 3 large plants which I took clones from during mars. Total with the mothers 10 plants. I gave 4 away. The first tomatoes I got during april. During may I put the plants in the window and turned the HPS off. I still get tomatoes although not that much anymore. Around 7 last week and maybe 5 - 8 this week. At most I got 3 -4 tomatoes / day.

Since I started early I used training and topping to make the plants bushy and large. Hence that they are really to large for the 10 l earth and they now do require quite an enourmous amount of water and nutrition.
