Nice to see the toms must admit looking forward to growing some differnt ones myself..A galapagos tom now theres a thing,best of luck growing them Neil :)
 
Thanks for the pics, when I look outside,see nothing but frost and sad looking leftover plants,it's good to see such beauties thriving. We will make it through the winter if you keep us happy with lots of pics!
 
When did you plant the black russian???

I have one I planted about a month ago as a seedling and it isn't even half that size???

Great looking healthy toms too...

those galip's are a great variety. I have one up here that comes up wild every were, currant tomatoes and italian heirlooms are my varieties of choice.
 
Hippy,

FWIW, I had an extremely hard time getting tom seeds to germinate using the same soil I did for peppers. Switched to a much finer soil and I've been above 90 percent germination.

What flavor can you expect from the black russian? I am wanting to try new varieties next year and looking for ideas.
