Do you have one of each, or multiples. I’ve grown that many varieties before but, some turn out quite similar and when you find your favourites the others sort of fall by the wayside. If I had more space I’d Probably grow more it would annoy the OH, as she already thinks I grow enough but, how much is enough. Are 80-90 plants really enough, I don’t think so personally. We use tomatoes in food at least 5-6 days a week. They are like onions in this household, the base of most dishes.

1-2 of each - Indigo pear drops completely failed, except for one blind yet double side shooted plant, which I am growing out just to see what it does x

Planted in the greenhouse last week:

Rosella
Ambrosia Red
Jaune Flamme
Black Prince
Moskovich
Rose de Berne
Tasmanian Chocolate
Rosella Purple

To go outside in a raised bed once the early garlic has finished, hopefully within the next week:

Arctic Rose
Grushovka
Clear Pink Early
Danko
Sibirsky Skorospelyi

To go in my first (and perhaps only ) attempt at straw bale gardening:

Maskotka x 2
Maglia Rosa

Then finally to go in an old green recycling bin against a sunny wall:

Galina
one out of Matina/Ambrosia Blue/Tsunshigo Chinese

    Tiny Tim tomato. 

Come on, lad, you can do it. Be my first of 2020. 

I was supposed to be sensible this year. But then some seeds made their way to me in the post...

Cooking tomatoes/fleshy tomatoes that the baby likes
Plum Roma
Marmande

From seed saved from a free plant from the GC last year
Gardener's Delight

Cheap grocery store multipack bonus tomato as bought for something else
Moneymaker

Magic seeds that arrived in the post/new to me
Black Cherry
Violet Jasper
Yellow Pear
Blush

And my plan to sow three of each of the magic seeds, as they were saved a few years ago, has ended with me having more than 20 tomato plants. I have a 6x6 greenhouse...Some of these chaps are trying their luck outside this year.

I'm not growing many varieties. I cut back so I could concentrate on getting my garden back into shape and then panicked and put a load more black cherry in at the last minute

I've got:
Rambling red stripe
Garden pearl
Latah

Then my cordons
Black cherry
Black Russian
Gardeners delight
Blush
Black V
Black Icicle 

So pretty boring for me really.
Though first tomatoes ripened and eaten today

Great Scarlet. Which variety and when did you sow it?

Well done Scarlet.............even though I hate to be beaten in the early tom race.

I've cut back on varieties too this year.
