    I've had Cuor di Bue, Super Sauce, Indigo Rose and Sweet Million (F1) so far, still waiting on San Marzano. Not sure that any are rare enough for the seed circle and not impressed with the taste of the first two (ok for cooking though).

        I’m in much the same position, 750grams so far ☹️. A few of various sorts. Dancing with Smurfs aren’t as “black” as I expected.

          Getting a few sungold but not much else so far. A couple of Shirley almost ripe. Loads in the gh but nowhere near a ripe black icicle yet. Took the top off the black icicle plants the other day as they had reached the roof and were climbing along. Got 5 trusses so I’d be happy if they all ripen.

                First time growing Black Icicle..Picking these in the last few days.
                They taste lovely but I wouldnt grow them again.
                They take up too much space and the foliage always looks the plant

                And when your back stops aching,
                And your hands begin to harden.
                You will find yourself a partner,
                In the glory of the garden.

                  Sorry don't know where the end of my post went.
                  The plant always looks its dying ad the foliage drops downward.

                  And when your back stops aching,
                  And your hands begin to harden.
                  You will find yourself a partner,
                  In the glory of the garden.

                      The number of fruit is gradually increasing. A few on many different varieties. The plants seem to be heavy with flowers is it the season?

                          Tons of blossom and tomatoes on all my plants this year..
                          I have had a great harvest so far.

                            I have loads of fruit developing not much harvest yet, but maybe the cooler weather this year is better. Spent yesterday wrestling with my outdoor tomatoes To get them better staked. The outdoor ones seem to want to sprawl all over the place and do that thing where the plant splits and grows in two different directions.

                              Has the update to the website lost our location? I always found it interesting to know where people were and what a difference that made.

                                I think if you click on the persons name their profile page comes up and if they added it when they joined, then it should show up there. We'll pop it on the request list -thanks for mentioning it.
