I didn't realise, until I looked through today, quite how many toms I have sown! Mind you, I can sell the excesses at the WI market in the village, and there is a plant sale for the local childrens hospice that I am helping at in May so I will probably have a few contributions for that. It would be good to know people in the village are trying different toms to the old Moneymaker.
Holy smokes EJ, you HAVE been busy! You must have a good size area or greenhouse to hold all those plants!
I throw my hands up and confess to not having sown a single seed. You've really got some nice stuff there, EJ.
They seeds are all in the conservatory at the moment, as we are lucky as it wraps around the entire back of our house so it is nice and roomy. The tom plantlets will head out to the greenhouse in a couple of weeks to harden off and grow slow and stocky but I am thinking of keeping the chillis and aubergines in the conservatory for longer so they can benefit from the extra warmth.
