I have inputted the new data architecture for tomatoes! Thank you everyone who participated in putting this together. I love this aspect of our database.

You can see the architecture here:

http://garden.org/plants/propo...

A few things:

1) I included both "Earliness" (which contains language descriptions like "Early" and "Late") as well as Days to Maturity. We can search on checkboxes but not so much on text fields. So we have both and I think that's a fine idea.

2) Under "Physiological Resistance" we are including Cold and Heat, but then under Climate Tolerance those are mentioned again. Is this not redundant?

3) I moved "Heirloom", "Greenhouse", "Potato Leaf" and "Suitable for containers" into one group called "Miscellaneous". Any future one-off type data items will go under Miscellaneous.
