Seeds are big! I'm going to start another one in a few weeks. I think it's going to produce some big tomatoes.

Wow! seems so early do you have a heated greenhouse or something? I'm not far from you and won't start for about another month, if I started this early I would have 5ft tomato plants by the time they're ready to go in the ground...lol

No you're right Dan it's your cross with the Butler tomato. I cutt my text short. I did finish my list and hit post. I bought it from your website. It's one of your crosses. I've got another one of your seeds that's one of the mystery seeds. Number 38 is that one.

Dr.Greenthumb I have a greenhouse and last year I started mine April 1st. Only reason why I'm starting earlier is because of the greenhouse. If I didn't have it I'd be starting middle of April.

Thanks LB a greenhouse definitely helps up here.

I usually start on 4/20 with plant out date after June 1st. I don't like to up pot my tomatoes and this has worked well for me in the past.

Good luck to you this season, cheers.

It's Alot of work up potting plants for sure but last year we handled it ok. I had my outside plants in the ground around June 1st. That was plenty of time for some nice giants. Have a great season and keep in touch! Cheers to you as well.
