Anyone else growing these? I've hung two baskets on the outside of my greenhouse and the toms look like living up to their name.

They've doubled in size over the last couple of weeks, the T&M pics looked good if these get anywhere near that I'll be well pleased. My grandaughers' already got her eye on them

I've got a couple of Sweet Millions - is that inflation do you think? Mine aren't basket ones though and are nowhere near as well developed as yours!Comment

Haven't tried the 100's and 1000's but grow the usual tumbling tom. In the past I have grown 3 per basket and ended up with a tangled mass. This year I only put one plant in a basket and they are looking a lot better. About the same stage as T8Ter, how many baskets have you got. I only did 3 this year as I increased the cordon grown ones.

Only two, they are the "georgian" metal ones that were on sale a while back in Aldi's. I thought I'd give them a try on the gutter of my greenhouse, so far so good.
I think this is the first year for 100/1,000 I hadn't seen them before anyway, it'll be good to see if the "micro" tomatoes have an intense flavour or not."We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses."-- Abraham LincolnComment

Have some of these myself. Was REALLY disappointed when I opened the packet to find there were only 8 seeds in it?!?!? But, fingers crossed they are growing away nicely in 4 hanging baskets in the back garden.
I got 7 plants (out of the 8 seeds) and there are loads and loads of flowers but no sign of any tomatoes yet... Fingers crossed they should be here soon. Not just as sunny over here in N.Ireland...
These basket toms are great as I just don't have enough room for them anywhere else. Big enough garden but need to gently pursuade OH one flower bed at a time....
