|

I tend to try a different type of tomato plant each year and this year I grew 9 plants from seed. I was left with 6 after the darn slugs and snails had their midnight feast. They have yielded an amazing crop for me. Anyone who grows Tomatoes should try these next year. The fruit is a small cherry sized tomato and you would be surprised by the amount of fruit is supplies. I have enough fruit to cover my Mum, Grandma, cousins and my friends family. The 6 plants are still fruiting.
I dont eat the veg I grow but I just had to share this as I am very pleased with myself considering I had an appalling crop last year.
They are called 100s and 1000s tomatoes and are new out this year.,(well where I live they are) _________________ I grow veg but I dont eat them!!! or fruit.... |

Are these Tomatoes "GRAPE" sized, i.e. very small?
What was the average diameter of the tomatoes you grew? |

They are called 100s and 1000s tomato and are by Suttons. '' The most fruit on a plant we have seen'' '' Grape sized fruit in bunches'' '' Probably the world's most prolific tomato!!!
I am trying to answer all the questions so bear with me here.. AS for diameters I dont have a notion. I put 3 to a basket and all grew. you get 8 seeds in a pack but i got 9 and slugs got 3 but I have to say they are amazing. Juts like it says on the pack. I bought them in my local hardware store.. _________________ I grow veg but I dont eat them!!! or fruit.... |
