new yorker tomato

Ours have been out in garden for a week about 8” tall now. I think they will settle in and start growing this week. I still have three in cups I refuse to give away just in case lol. Going to plant them in 20 gallon pots soon.

Mine are still in cell pack I think I am being overly protective of them

Mine are about 14 inches tall and I found one little tomato yesterday. About the size of a pencil eraser.

Pop them in some 4 or 5 inch pots then hit them with some fish emulsion.
If you realy want the to grow you could add some alfalfa meal to the soil. The triaconatol in the alfalfa meal will give them a boost.

I agree with @Titan Farm , up pot and fertilize and they will take off.

Mine where started later than the other varieties, so they are only about 6 inches tall and in the garden. Kept some to replant in case. A slow start.

I just realized I knew nothing about this tomato. On Totally Tomatoes site, it says they are early, determinate, disease resistant, open pollinated, 4 to 6 oz. beefsteak type. Not prone to blossom end rot or cracking. Sounds kinda like a wonder tomato!
Open pollinated means if we like them, we can save the seeds to grow next year.
