How do you have so many red before me?


I just buy tomato seedlings at a really nice local nursery. I have tomato seeds but never have tried starting them. I had my tomatoes planted out really early this year, they were in ground by April 29th. And they just started growing like crazy.

Still, it felt like it took a long time till red ones where ready. But I say that every year. I do have a lot of plants and different varieties. Have-

Sungold
Sweet Million
Juliet
Big Boy
Better Boy
Big Beef
Jet Star
Rutgers
Supersonic
Beefmaster
Early Girl

Been picking so many I have been giving them away to neighbors and friends since last week. But I do eat a lot of them myself. I just love home grown tomatoes.
