Tomatoes (swoon) are my favorite edible to grow. This year I replaced a few varieties I usually grow with a couple new ones to try. I start all my seeds in January, which works for me in Portland, since I like for my tomatoes to get nice and strong and a foot high when I transplant them in the garden in May. I sow inside and eventually promote the little plants to my greenhouse, where they are up-potted for another few months before transplant.
This year's varieties:
Kellogg’s Breakfast - I ** new this year!
Indigo Cherry Drops - I ** new this year!
Oregon Cherry (OSU) - D
Costoluto Fiorentino - I - H
Pink Berkeley Tie-Dye - I
Buffalosun - I
Ananas Noire - I

This Pink Berkley Tie-Dye tomato (above) was bigger than my hand and weighed over 1.5 lbs on its own!
