I also have some seeds I am drying from some tomatoes from Trader Joe's (sugar plums) that I want to plant but haven't had a chance to yet.

I planted the heirlooms 2 weeks ago and the sungold about a week ago. Half of the heirlooms germinated and all the sungolds have germinated by now.

I'll be planting about 15 tomato seeds on my patio garden and a small plot I have at a community farm.

Anyone have any opinions on the varieties I picked? Any other advice on good tomatoes for small spaces? I live in the Los Angeles area.

I've planted seeds for the following tomatoes last week and am waiting on germination:

Siberia (semi-determinate, trying for early hoophouse production)
Wisconsin 55
Cherokee Purple
TN Surprise
Black Prince
Black Krim
Cosmonaut Volkov (also have two overwintering cuttings)
Big Beef
Old German
Kelloggs Breakfast

Two small ones that I have really liked pretty well are Red Robin and Orange Pixie.

The Red Robin are sturdy dwarf plants that can be grown in containers quite happily. They grow only 6 inches tall and produce golf ball sized fruits with quite decent flavor.

The orange pixie get to about 18 inches tall and produce slightly larger yellow-orange fruits with nice flavor.

I've also grown Tiny Tim but was quite discourage by the quality of the fruits. Never again.

Some unusual choices. I'm curious why these particular ones appealed to you over some of the more commonly grown ones?

I tried Uncle Mark Bagby (note name) once but wasn't impressed with the production. Hope it works better for you.

Patano Romanesca is RomanescO - names can be important especially if you plan to save and/or trade seeds or search for info on the variety - is a good tomato with good production the one year I tried it. I think you will like it. All depends on your locale and growing conditions. It is a BIG plant so needs a big container or big supports if in ground.

Enjoy your tomatoes.

I'd like to try growing Huang Se Chieh again (the ones I started from seed two seasons ago died before they made it into the ground, unfortunately). However I can't find seed anywhere anymore.

Sweet Baby Girl
San Marzano Gigante
Cherokee Purple
Brandy Boy

The first two are repeats and the other two are my choices gleaned fromlurking here and reading the various "must-grow" and "year-review" threads. If the the SMGs suffer as badly from BER as last year with my changes in cultural practice planned for this season then I'll likely switch out to a more resistant SM variety. But they are impressive and beautiful when ripe!

Can't wait until spring.
Will be planting seed indoors next month.

I'm a bit nervous, all new plants and in the ground versus containers. All will be new for me this year with the tomatoes; fertilizing, watering, but the waiting and watching will remain. I plan on installing drip lines, better for watering and easier on my well, particularly if we have as dry of a summer as we have had this past winter. The soil test is going in the mail tomorrow; I am quite eager to get my hands in the dirt, but we've gotten nailed with snow in April a few times so I am trying to behave. Thinking of having the plants ready to go in the garden in Wall o'Waters for May 01; pushing it a bit but the Wall o'Waters do allow for that.

Money has gotten really tight around here, so I've been moving over to mostly heirloom seeds so I can at least collect the seeds at the end of the season.

I haven't gardened for several years so I'm easing back into things with smart pot and only three varieties from Park Seed:

Brandywine

Can anyone suggest one more variety that a midsize juict tomato with high acid flavor? Thanks.

I am sure i will start some more seeds in the next few days, even though i do not have enough room as it is.

Hope everyone has a great growing season!

Nothing too fancy and almost ho-hum, but these have performed well for me year in and year out. I've found most heirlooms to be less tolerant to disease and they don't have near the amount of production as hybrids. My standards must not be too high regarding taste, but most anything I grow, regardless of the variety, always tastes better than what can be bought at a grocery store or restaurant. There are a few heirlooms on my list that can't be denied a grow spot every year. Brandywine used to be one of them, but Brandy Boy has delivered the final knock out punch. After growing both of them side by side for several years in a row, I decided Brandywine isn't worth the trouble.

Hoping for a better tomato year this year! Last year, the spring was so cold and wet that all of my wintersown tomatoes germinated a month later than usual and were so tiny by the time it was safe to plant out, that I ended up buying plants at a local nursery, and even then barely had any ripe ones by the first frost. Very disappointing! Barely had enough to can a couple of batches of salsa, and tomato sauce.

Bonnie

Have grown before with good production, flavor:

Big Zac (lots of huge red, tasty tomatoes but were kind of ugly--I don't care, taste comes first)

Brandy Boy (very nice productive, large--I find them larger than Burpee claims--pinkish red tomatoes with lots of flavor)

Hungarian Heart (beautiful, large, tasty, pink oxheart-type fruit--every one last year was over a pound--that were extremely productive in last year's growing season, which I found to be the worst ever)

New to me:

Porterhouse by Burpee (I hope this one produces the one to four pound fruit they promise and tastes good--we'll see!)

I like large tomatoes for salad and sandwiches and I've tried Mortgage Lifter which I found to be very "bland" and I hope Porterhouse will be a better replacement.

This is my second year to grow tomatoes and the only ones on this list that I grew last year were Cherokee Purple and Sioux. The Sioux did great, CP only made a few tomatoes that got eaten by caterpillars. But everyone says it's so good, I decided to give it another chance.

Sungold - I grow this every year. The most prolific in my garden.
Sunsugar - new to me
Green Zebra - grew this 2 years ago very successfully
Pineapple - new to me
Kellogg's Breakfast - new to me

A short list compared to some of you, but I'm hoping for decent production of tasty tomatoes!

Trying new this year:
San Marzano
Alicante
Bloody Butcher
Jaffa
Jubilee
Blodkopfchen
Watermelon Beefsteak
Longkeeper
Indigo Rose (starting for a friend but may grow if I have lots of starts)

I notice several of you are growing Old German, which is making me regret my decision not to - this is the first year in quite a while I am not. But, since I'm at capacity (I'll be packing 'em in as it is), I'll just have to live vicariously through your Old German enjoyment.

Beefsteak
Black Krim (Rainbow Heirloom Mix)
Brandywine Pink (Rainbow Heirloom Mix)
Cherokee Purple
Coustralee (Rainbow Heirloom Mix)
Djena Lee's Golden Girl (Rainbow Heirloom Mix)
Endless Summer
Golden Mama (Best of Show Mix)
Golden Sunburst (Rainbow Heirloom Mix)
Green Sausage (Rainbow Heirloom Mix)
Honey Bunch (Best of Show Mix)
Mexico Midget
Orange Roma (Best of Show Mix)
Pineapple
Pink Slicer Hybrid (Best of Show Mix)
Rutgers
Snow White Cherry (Best of Show Mix)
Yellow Pear

And two others that I forgot to put on my seed list, I think some kind of beefsteak and steak sandwich. Some of the seeds came in mixed packets.

Last year I tried starting from seeds and managed to kill 90% of the seedlings on every step, until finally I either over-watered/over-fertilized/allowed it to rain too much and as the tomatoes began to ripen they turned black and rotted. Blossom end rot I think. The only tomatoes I got was a handful of yellow pear and they tasted terribly bland, I don;t know if it was because they were not doing well or if that is how they're supposed to taste.

Hopefully this year will do better, or at least kill the seedlings early enough to buy plants at the store. I am excited about the heirlooms, especially the pineapple.
