My first try of growing tomatoes was last summer when I did Shirley and Moneymaker (to see if OH could tell the difference). I am allergic to tomatoes and can't eat them so I won't grow many. Love the smell of the plants though, they remind me of my childhood. This year I plan a couple of mini tomatoes (Robin F1) since they are fun for the children to grow (and I keep hoping they will get a taste for tomatoes). Also doing Golden Sunrise as the idea of yellow tomatoes appeals, Brandywine as I read they are delicious - will have to ask OH's opinion! and Sophie's Choice since they are supposedly quick maturing. As I don't eat them and OH won't grow them it will be an interesting experiment!! |
