[QUOTE="TexasJerseyMilker, post: 1814149, member: 42782"] Johnnys Seeds-- did she grow heirlooms? I just wrote 1 star reviews on Amazon for all the 'hairlooms' I tried to grow this year, with photos. Lemon Boy- supposed to be a big round bright yellow tomato. Its a red plum tomato of some kind, nearly tasteless. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Great White 2.JPG"]33393[/ATTACH] Great White- supposed to be a great big greenish white tomato with exotic fruity flavors. Tomatos are small to medium, red and sour. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Great white 1.JPG"]33394[/ATTACH] Early Girl grown from seed. Supposed to produce tomatos in 60 days. 7 months later, still no ripe tomatos. It's my own fault. I knew Hybrids can't be grown from seeds but I thought I'd try it because I'm not paying $4. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Early Girl.JPG"]33395[/ATTACH] Well, there's these Cherokee Purple tomatos started making tomatos last month. They are smallish, horribly deformed and the insides colored like vomit, taste sweet/bland but better than nothing. Basically, the whole tomato year was blown on hairlooms. I've learned my lesson. Buy those $4 Early Girls, root the cuttings from the suckers and have a lifetime supply of free Early Girl plants. Ripe tomatos in June, disease resistance, great flavor, indetermiant and produce all season. [/QUOTE]
