I usually plant 40-50 in garden and another 10 in raised beds


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

Gonna have to try a couple those.


I bought the last one of these they had at the feed store this morning to give it a try

Really glad to read this, because I just happened to buy two of these this morning (without reading this before).

I like Cherokee Purple for sandwiches and just eating, Better Boys are good for eating and canning. Roma’s for salsa and canning.

Excellent tasting tomatoes. Weird color but taste great.

My current favorite that I have mentioned here before is a hybrid type called Big Beef. Just the best all around tomatoe I have found. Good taste and they typically produce the first ripe tomatoe in my garden; the most ripe tomatoes per plant; and are the last plant still producing tomatoes in my garden. They are good sized tomatoes as well. Usually with most tomatoes the lower ones will be the biggest and get smaller the higher you go up the vine. These are very uniform in size.

I planted the new Celebration variety. It’s the new and improved hybrid Celebrity. Supposed to have a better disease package and more prolific. So far I’m liking the way the plants look and they are starting to put in fruit. I have my fingers crossed I can make a decent crop of tomatoes. I have horrible luck with tomatoes but I’ve been babying them since I put the seed in the starting trays. So far so good.

I have not heard of the Celebration variety. I'll get some of those for next year. I plant Celebrities for my early variety because they come in nearly as early as an Early Girl and are a whole lot better tomato to me.

What kind of "horrible luck" do you have with your tomatoes Marsh? They die?

Either I do something to kill em or weather does it for me. Last year when they started producing I was getting around 20 tomatoes a picking. After the 3rd picking we had a storm come thruwith bad wind and hail. It destroyed every plant. I really tried to educate myself on growing tomatoes by research and talking to people I know that grows great tomatoes. As I said so far so good. [Linked Image]

They look great. You've got a little leaf curl going on, on the bottom limbs. I'd prune those off, but other than that, they look fantastic.

This is my first year at trying to have a good garden. Local nursery had a really good deal on started plants, $1/each, so picked up 2 plants of 7 different kinds. Beefsteak, better boy, celebrity, brandy wine, yellow pear, Cherokee purple, and another yellow one I can’t remember the name of. I put them in the ground last week and they’ve taken off. Put some triple 12 and dolomitic lime in the soil with them, and gonna side dress with blood meal and fire pit ash when they start fruiting.

You're gonna need a phosphorous source.... I'd get a bag of 5-20-20 and let her rip. Blood meal and wood ashes sounds good, but fertilizer is more practical.

Fur, where can those be obtained?


I normally get mine at a local nursery, but she didn't plant any this year. Bonnie plants has them this year. First time I've ever noticed them selling them. Just look around where those are sold. If you can't find any, ask them to get you some. They are amazing.

My bag of blood meal says it’s 2-7-4, so I’ll just add more to make up the difference.

My row of cucumbers don't look worth a flip. Two plants on the end of the row look decent but the others are yellow. When I got up this morning and looked out back, the cucumber row was standing in water.... My whole garden is in a low spot, not like a swamp, but just a low swell where my yard meets the field behind it. Since we apparently now have a monsoon season in Alabama, I'm gonna build me a row hipper like Marshmud did so I can plant my garden on high ground next year.
