I'm not sure what generation these are, whether F1, F2, or later, but here are my Black Krim x Garnet seedlings, so far, this year:
I'm tagging them under other, since they might be F2+, and probably are.

Here are my Black Cherry tomato seedlings, so far, this year:
Those plants with them are volunteer wonderberries that I plan to pull up eventually.
The plant has less sun than I would prefer. So, I plan to probably grow it again some time to make a better assessment.

Here's a picture of the second generation of the Ambrosia Red offtype I have. The first generation came from Gardenboy (of Tomatoville's) seed offer. The first generation was golfball-sized and yellow. After the first few fruits, it tasted great, and was extremely prolific and vigorous. It was p...read more

Here's a picture of the Amana Orange tomato that I'm growing this year, from Marsha's seed offer at TomatoJunction, this year. I've grown it from another source before, and liked it (however, it may have been crossed with a pink tomato then, and I thought I ran out of seeds).

And I'm growing it. Here's a picture of the F3 plant. I just thinned it to one plant, today. It has shown excellent greenhouse cold-tolerance and vigor, and great vigor post-transplant. This plant is from the fruit with a very long blossom scar.

I've had Yellow Wonder strawberries since 2016. It's a nice variety. It fruits and grows well. Germination hasn't been as abundant or as quick as Alexandria, but it's still about as long as some tomatoes.
These are fruits I harvested, today. They're the first strawberries of the season, actua...read more

Does anyone know what vegetable ผักแขนง (as used in Thailand) refers to, in English? Wikipedia redirects to the cabbage article, but I hear it refers to a small, brussels sprouts kind of thing.

I'm trying to identify a cool grasshopper that frequents our property, although it's not the dominant kind by a long shot.
It looks a lot like, and may be, Schistocerca shoshone, the green bird grasshopper, or green valley grasshopper.
They are huge, though. They probably get over three in...read more

So, I was thinking today that pill bugs have a lot of legs. I figured they must not be insects. So, I looked them up to find out what they were, and Wikipedia says they're crustaceans. Then I found the following article:

Did this flower make an appearance in the movie Frozen by chance?
We've got some in the backyard. It looks pretty nice (the flowers are a much brighter white than the picture depicts):

I've decided to pre-start various kinds of seeds, including some that I haven't had success starting in containers and/or direct-seeded.
I've germination-tested Galapagos Island tomato seeds this way before (in the winter or so), but this is my first time doing it to plant them afterward. I'v...read more

I've found that blending up sunroots with tomato sauces and/or soups makes them pretty tasty! Additionally, it helps to thicken them and add nutrients.
You can make an excellent ketchup and cocktail sauce substitute by doing this:
• Blend up a jar of home-canned stewed tomatoes (skins, see...read more

They probably know what they're doing since they sell plants that can be pretty vigorous. So, I looked them up to see what's likely in the potting mix of the plants they sell.
Basically, they say about what I'd expect, wit...read more
