    Toms mix-up - Banana cream or lemon tree??

    I got distracted when I was sowing my tomato seeds, and discovered I'd labelled two rows as banana cream, when one row was banana cream and the other was lemon tree. Now, one of these is determinate, and the other is indeterminate. My question is how to now tell them apart.

    I have two each of the plants, and each pair is quite distinct. I just don't know which is which. One pair has HUGE "armpits" - does this mean it is the determinate one (banana cream), as these aren't armpits as such, but proper branches?

    If anyone can help, that would be great, as i should be taking out the sideshoots of the lemon tree by now

    Many thanks

      You could try PM'ing tomatoking? I've done something similar myself only neglected to label a few tomatoes and now .... well they are mystery toms.

        Thanks Susie,

        I didn't like to pester him, but he is the tomato king, after all

        I'll maybe PM him later ... though it looks like he's not around at the moment.

          I'm not sure if this is a help as I've not grown Banana Cream, but I am growing Lemon Tree and although it is a cordon, early on it was incredibly hairy if that makes sense! Very vigorous side growth I looked it up again as I was convinced it was a bush variety
