Chinese Tea tomato?

wykvlvr · #1

I am redoing my database after losing it and so far have been able to find information on the tomato varieties I have but I just stumbled across a confusing one.
The slip from Bunny Hop (where I bought it from) has a photo of small round red tomatoes and says "Det, early, RL" so determinate early regular leaf with red tomatoes... and this one says it is a determinate 60 days middle early https://tomatprat.blogspot.com/2019/11/chinese-tea.html
BUT
Tatianna's and other sources online say Chinese Tea is an indet mid season regular leaf with small red round tomatoes.
HELP?!

@wykvlvr I think it would be best if you asked Ellie at Bunny Hop Seeds about this. She may have an off-type or there may be two tomatoes with the same name. The big difference in the descriptions is being a determinate or indeterminate.

I was hoping for help here so I wouldn't have to bother her as I know her days are pretty busy right now. But I will contact her and ask about that one. It could well be that there are two plants with the same name something like the Mr. Stripey mess at one time.

This has been an interesting week or so as I started with the other veggies and flowers and held off on my huge pile of envelopes with tomatoes in it until everything else was done... First I had to relearn how to build the database and get my forms set up for ease of entry. Then locate as many of my seed boxes as possible (one is still MIA) And all my original plans have gone out the window as I looked at some of those older seeds and was like umm better try those now.
