Your tomato plants look amazing. I get so overwhelmed choosing which varieties to grow each year. I love seeing what everyone else is growing. Planted out my first three plants just this morning...Stupice, Alice's Dream and Money Maker...many more to come 🍅 🇦🇺
Thank you Tamsin. I know, we're spoilt for choice aren't we? Hopefully the taste test videos and my Top 10 for 2024 (out soon) will help. I hope you have a great growing season... ours is almost over.
A nice selection of heirlooms, and my favourite that I grow, are the cocktail violas, very sweet and excellent for frying with a full English. God bless.
Your tomato line up is very impressive and beautiful. I am well motivated to be more adventurous next year but will still grow my regular large Marmande which when sliced in a sandwich or fried is so tasty.
When you find a favourite, you have to stick with it. I have seeds from most of this year's tomatoes for sale on my website. There are three variety packs to choose from. Let me know what you think.
@@veggieplot quite few different ones; crashed hart, mint julep, something that looks like Alice’dream and one that is very strong green and red stripe possibly pink Berkeley tied dye. All this from 6 seeds. Impressive,NRT added lots new varieties for the new season…
@veggieplot well I have loads of Striped Stuffer! Had a fabulous amount of Sungold and Tumbling Tom. Alice's Dream haven't worked so well me. Probably my fault, lack of water I think. Grew them in conservatory next to Striped Stuffer in same type of pot and compost. Will try again next year with different pot or growbag
Stuffed tomatoes for breakfast, lunch and dinner then is it? They're quite productive aren't they. Shame about Alice's Dream, but well worth trying again next year as they are delicious.
@@veggieplot ☺️ do you have Lydie’s Rose ? It is a French beef steak that you will not find in shops because it has been bred by a friend … it took him 7 years to settle/fix it … it can be one for you to try next year . I’ll dig out your address and send you a few 😃
My Alice's dream are really dark purple, almost black. Still green underneath so I've not had the opportunity to taste one yet. Fingers crossed 🤞 I'm also growing Honeycomb. They taste so sweet. Really delicious
Tomatoes look fabulous 👌honeycomb is one i grew this year amongst others got som Alice's dream seed to try next year but finding it hard to source some of those varieties your growing that I like the look of , great looking crop 👍
What did you think of Honeycomb? I have three different heirloom tomato variety packs for sale on my website if you'd just want to try without buying tons of the same type. Two seeds from 5 varieties, so 10 seeds in total. Let me know what you think.
@@veggieplot loved the honeycomb still grew sungold but I think it will just be the honeycomb next year its the splitting that annoys me 🙄 , Would love to purchase some seed please 👍
Summer was bad for planting outside here this year in the UK, frosts until May, planted toms out, now the September cold has already killed my tomato plants (except those in the greenhouse)
I've given up outside as they always perish before the fruits ripen. The greenhouse and polytunnel are the only safe bets it seems. Great guitar skills by the way... listening to Spike at the moment.
Hi Richard, welcome. I give seeds away with certain products I sell, when they're ready, or you can buy from She Grows Veg, NRTomtoseed and Tomato Revolution. All in the UK and on the web. Let's hope next year is better... I hate getting blight on the tomatoes!
Great vid, could watch this all day!
Glad you enjoyed it! A new video from the allotment is out tonight, I hope you like it.
Good show, nice to see the plant form, I've just ordered some Alices Dream thanks
Thank you and you'll love Alice's Dream. If you ever fancy trying any of the other, I have special seed packs for sale on my website at the moment.

Thank you, I do enjoy growing the heirlooms as they offer so much variety in flavour, colour and use. I'll check out the violas you mention.

Very helpful, I got a lucky dip seeds after watching your videos, now I have tomatoes that need identifying…
Do you know what they might be a mixture of or not? Next year will be fun though, exciting.

What a fantastic harvest! 😊
Thanks Sue, how have your's done this year?

All beautiful. A great selection. Quite jealous even if I have had a nice crop this year. 😊
Some of the best are from the seeds you gave me. Amish Sherbert is a grow every year tomato.

Never heard of it Sandrine and I'd love to try it. Do I have any you'd like for next year?
My Alice's dream are really dark purple, almost black. Still green underneath so I've not had the opportunity to taste one yet. Fingers crossed 🤞
I'm also growing Honeycomb. They taste so sweet. Really delicious
Yours must be in full sun to develop such dark tones, I hope they tasted good. Honeycomb are delicious, I'm thinking of starting a fan club 🤣
Sign me up 😅

You are really messing with my tom plan....enticing me to do more.🥰
Haha, sorry Robin. Top 10 is out ofter tonight's video and I have one surprise tomato that might beat them all.
Great vid
Thanks Con. They're nearly over, just a few hanging on in there at the moment.

Do you use a Banana in your ripening.
I just leave them on the side in the kitchen John. A north facing windowsill and they all seem to get there eventually.
@@veggieplot Thanks Chris.
