Manx Marvel Tomatoes

[zigs]

After hardening mine off I got them in the ground today

Along with some Big Zacs and Better Boys

Awesome. Mine haven't sprouted yet... been only a few days.

 

[zigs]

Takes a week or so

 

[kevinkimers]

Can't wait to see the little guys. I am planting only 4 seeds at the moment. Want to make for certain I know what I am doing before I plant the bunch.

Great to see the tomatoes in Zigs, fingers crossed for a good crop!

 

[grouie]

Pm me your address and i'll send you some seed, you probably have a longer growing season than me

@zigs Mrs Bootsy repotted your MM's and they have quadrupled their size in 10 days. . They have their visas and passports all ready to go north.

Thanks but I am afraid of failure. What if..................
Are you serious?

I'm pretty sure that he's serious. We do send seeds all over the place.

Never be afraid of failure when growing plants. They're very forgiving.

Nice one Wish mine had, the wind has been holding them back

Yep, if you don't plant them this season you could save them for next


We have to start them off under cover in the UK as we only get a short season and usually get late blight which can take the entire crop out

I thought you only had that problem with beans!!!

Thanks Let me think as I will be thoroughly frustrated if I do not meet with success. I am disgustingly made that way.

Go for it grouie; I can't imagine you not having success in your climate and with your good care!
I'm going to hit zigs up for seeds for next spring so I can share Michigan Manx Marvel tomatoes. We have a short but mighty growing season here and as long as it's not too gloomy and wet tomatoes do extremely well.

Thanks for your encouragement. OK then here I go - the first step is to send a message to you know who
