How many tomato plants are you growing and what varieties

[Penellype]

I live in a house with a relatively big garden, just to scared to get going really! Love my lawn, especially in summer when it's not soggy but really want to grow veg! No good at decision making!

Grow your veg in pots, then you can move them around if you decide you don't like them where they are. That's what I do with a lot of mine

Mmmm tomatoes

Shirley
I can fit 10 on the sitting room windowsill and I have 4 on the kitchen windowsill.
3 are going to go in the greenhouse at my friend's.
17 Shirley.

Sungold
I'll sow 6 but probably end up with more as I usually plant some sideshoots. 4 in the cold frame, some in the open soil.
?8 Sungold.

Belle
Big beefsteak variety, too big for the house so will go in the greenhouse.
1 Belle

Roma
Plum variety I haven't grown before. 1 for the greenhouse and 1 in the open ground
2 Roma

Sweet Aperitif
Not grown this before. 1 for the greenhouse and 1 for the open ground
2 Sweet Aperitif

Garden Pearl
Bush variety I haven't grown before, said to do well in pots. Going to try 3 in a chiligrow planter outdoors
3 Garden Pearl

Totem
Bush variety which fruits early. I think I have 4 seeds left. Not quite sure where I am putting these at the moment.
?4 Totem

Balconi red and Balconi yellow
Dwarf bush plants grown as an experiment. 2 of each currently in grow light garden. Will fit onto random windowsills or something.
4 Balconi

That adds up to about 41, although I suspect I may end up with more from random sideshoots I can't bear to throw away....

This morning I was growing Sun baby, Money maker, Marmanade & Gardeners delight, though now http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gra...ght_84155.html I am not

Plenty of time to sow more - it's early days yet

[Jay-ell]

I've got Black Krim, Black Cherry, Tigrella and another one who's name suddenly eludes me growing at the moment - 10 plant of each. I'm also going to sow garden Perl and Currant Sweet Pea to put into the upside down things and pots and baskets.

Original plan was for two plants of each of the four to go into a greenhouse.

[Lisasbolt]

Oh Tumberling stripped that sounds interesting.
I also have some Shirley seeds coming, I want to know what all the fuss is about

[Spunky]

You haven't tried a tomato till you've tried sweet aperitif!

[spinningsue]

I've only got three varieties (so far!):

Tigerella x 4
Gardener's Delight x 5
Moneymaker x 5

I sowed 6 of each and had 5 of each sprout, one of the Tigerellas fell victim to my clumsiness...

[fishpond]

3 x Gardeners delight from 3 sown.
Possibly growing GW freebies if I get them---Don't know where at the moment.

[NatalieCooke]

Wow we have some serious tomato growing here.
I'm growing the following

Alisa Craig
Pedro
Tigerlla
Country taste
Roma
Gigantomo
I might add a tumbling one in the mix.
Not sure how many of each I'll be keeping.

[spamvindaloo]

I thought I'd gone over the top with 12 varieties but clearly I'm quite normal compared to some of you lot

1. Sungold
2. Golden sunrise
3. Yellow pear
4. Tigerella
5. Banana legs
6. Cream sausage
7. Gold roma
8. Nimbus
9. Marmande
10. Pineapple
11. Indigo blue
12. Mille fleur

From that list I've only grown Sungold before. I'll probably only keep one plant of each variety but maybe an extra Sungold because they are very nice. Spare plants will be given to friends and family

My seedlings have all just shown their faces.

6 Gardeners Delight from saved seed going back 4 generations. Thes appear to be the strongest seedlings of the bunch.

6 Alicante saved from last years seed. These are second strongest.

6 Roma. Saved seed from last year. Third strongest looking.

6 Ferline F1 bought this year. These look a bit flimsy in comparisson with the saved seed.

100% germination from them all though.
