Ignore the date code, camera has a mind of it's own.

Sorry Carol Dee. I believe the date code, but must admit I'm amazed you grow such nice tomatoes in January.
And, uh, where's your face for proof that those aren't the neighbors?

That means no photo until I get some one to use the camera (I have no fancy phone for a selfie!) LOL

Looks like I'm out of the game.
Of the only 2 surviving NYs, one 'collapsed' yesterday and the other isn't looking too good.

Question - if it is blight that is taking out my NYs - should I NOT save the seeds of the couple that have almost made it to ripe?

I'm not going to blame the seeds for the poor growth since my garden soil is questionable this year. I bet that next year I'll have beautiful, bountiful plants too.

Ok, mine aren’t staked just sprawling on straw on ground. They are loaded and seem to be ripening ALL at once. Great if I was wanting to can. The flavor is very good. I would think these would be a great variety for the north with a short growing season as these were direct seeded into the garden.

What I don’t like is that they seem to be a small tomato and determinants. Fun to try though.
