I also have Sunny Boy, Pineapple & Golden Boy (Yellows).

Been watering exclusively with captured rainwater since I planted, too.

I have 18 Earthboxes ... they are incredible ...


Experimented with Cherokee Purple "CP" last nov-dec-jan in the Tampa area ... they were pretty good, kind of a weird shape sometimes, tasted preyy good as well ...

Also had great success with Celebrity (hybrid) ...

This season I'm planting several different types of hybrids (2 plants each, both in a single earthbox) ...

I'm kinda tired of experimenting after 6 growing seasons with often failed tomatoes ...



I put together a comprehensive seasonal time-line chart if you would like to have it ... it's an adobe PDF ...

For those living in the Clearwater-Dunedin (FL) area ... you "have" to visit "Emmet" at the Home Depot at US-19 and Curlew, on most Saturday mornings ...

He's a great guy, and "genuine" plant-scientist-genius ...
