Yeah I need another one - got Early Girl Tomato seeds and one Early Girl plant tonight (last night).
52 days until harvest. Gonna get an early jump. Last year, Early Girl was my best producer. I think I got 3 out of the Better Boy while Early Girl would have like 15 on the vine.

Early Girl IS a good cultivar, but I favor a bigger tomato. A new favorite is, ‘Chef’s Orange’ which is a perfect slicer for BLTs with less acidity, and I always grow paste-types for salsa and sauces, and a smaller, ‘Juliet’ for drying.
I have room for 24 tomato plants this season, after not having much of a garden last year, as we were in the middle of selling two homes and moving. ‘Happy’ doesn’t even BEGIN to describe my outlook this season! Now, if the weather will cooperate, I’ll be up to my butt in tomatoes this harvest season! :)
