One part of the swap is wish lists.

This thread will be for participants to post their wish lists, tomatoes only, up to 25 specific varieties.

It's also for other participants to check and see if they have those varieties to send in. Wish list only posts, no verification posts that you have the variety. Also no useless banter posts that will drift out into the ocean of Brody, Quint, Hooper and "Bruce". See how easy that could happen?

I'm looking for very sweet tomatoes. Larger sweet tomatoes would be wonderful. Tomatoes with a high brix and high pH. I'm not picky about the specific variety, just looking to expand my garden tomato collection

Edit:
After looking at the extensive list, I found a few I know I want to try based on reviews I've read.

Pink Ping Pong
Isis Candy
Black Cherry
Kellogg's Breakfast
Yellow Pear
42 Day
Sungold Select II

I need more tomatoes like I need a kick in the ***, but gardening has been an outlet for some of the struggles I'm going through and I enjoy working with varieties that need preserving and sharing. My likes are deep orange tomatoes of all kinds, compact container-friendly varieties, sungold-like cherries, long storage varieties, and things that scare people because they can't be pronounced. Right now, these are the ones that interest me.

Antonucci Slicer
Aurora De Constanta
Beaverlodge Slicer
Birjinekupsky? - Could this be Berdskiy Krupniy? I can read Russian if you have the original pack.
Blue Ambrosia
Buzau 22
Buzau 47
Claude Brown's Yellow Giant
David Davidson
Golden Bison
Japanese Tomato Tree
Medovaya Kaplya
Northern Lights
Novosadski Jabucar
Pamplemouse du Grande Pere
Petrusha Ogorodnik
Pozhar
Schlicht's Orange Cherry
Solovey Razboyni
Sungold Select II
Sweet Ozark Orange
Talalihan 186
WOW
Yuko's Persimmon
Zarnitsa

If you like SunGold-like tomatoes, you'll want to add Ambrosia Gold. It's the closest I've found in an OP to that SunGold taste.

Birjinekupsky? - I'm not sure if I have the original label. But, it was written in English. In the MMMM, the longest, most difficult to spell varieties, usually have the worst penmanship, making things interesting to say the least.

Thanks. I do have Ambrosia Gold and in fact have it listed in the spoiler alert as one I'm sending in. It was one I grew this year and I have to agree regarding the flavor! Incidentally, there seems to be some variation in color. I had 3 plants, one of which produced solid golden fruit, another that produced solid golden fruit with an occasional red blush on the blossom end, and a 3rd which produced golden fruit which eventually turned red when dead ripe. I had that one marked as an off-type, but then as the season progressed, I was getting gold fruit from that same plant with only a few turning red. Weird. All 3 had the same wonderful flavor and I'll be sending seeds from the more consistently gold plants.

[mention]OhioGardener[/mention], I have some Northern Lights from 2013/2014 that I'd be happy to send you if nothing else comes through, and you don't mind older seed.

I also have Sweet Ozark Orange from around the same time, same offer if you don't find fresher.

Just remind me after the MMMM dust has cleared...

Green Doctors Frosted (I currently have one pack) ain't calling your name?

Tastiheart
Bloody Butcher
KBX C-Tex
Stupice
Red Deuce

[mention]indysun[/mention] Did you mean KBX and then JD's Special C-Tex? These are two different tomatoes. Are they both on your list?

Grin "simple" wish list here
I want a plain jane slicer to enter in fair (an entry is 3 similar as possible tomatoes).
Note: Many years we can't plant out until June and fair is first week of August. We have cool nights, even if the days reach high 90s it will drop to the 50s... we have WIND! lots of wind, lots and lots of wind. Conversely we also have a lot of sun. I am at 6,000 ft altitude. Wispy foliage = sunscald and windburn.

OKAY huge editNew list:

I'm going to need a bigger boat, er mailer! Okay, okay thanks to MissS I get to play this year and I'm so excited! Thanks Hooper!
Being a relative new grower, I'm amazed at the varieties out there and I'd love to try them ALL Since I only have two friends who garden at all, the only way I'm going to get to try new varieties is to grow them myself. To that end, here is my wish list, long because there are so many varieties that are new to me and that sound so great! I'll be thrilled with whatever I get in the swap, though

African Queen
Ambrosa Gold
Blue Beauty or Black Beauty
Boronia Dwarf
Brad's Atomic Grape
Candy Sweet Icicle
Daniels
Garnet
Gary’O Sena
Granny Cantrell
KARMA Miracle
KARMA Peach
KARMA Pink
KBX
Marsha's Starfighter beefsteak
Orange Jazz
Pink Bumblebee or Black Cherry
Prudens Purple
Red Lithium
Rosella
Striped Rumplestiltskin
Sweet Aperitif
Taiga
Tennessee Suited Dwarf
Uluru Ochre Dwarf

Yes Miss S I made a couple mistakes on my wish list : KBX and C-Tex, also the Heinze I believe was supposed to be 1439.
Thank you for pointing that out.

I have lots of saladette size but I would love to get something in the 6 to 10 oz. size range that actually will give me tomatoes most years...

You need a biodome. Or at least a low hoop tunnel that can stand up to the wind, and be removed during the heat of the day.

Easier said than done here as wind is a near constant here. During our snowstorm earlier this month many folks lost their greenhouses... We had areas with gusts over 80 mph...

It's fun looking at others' wish lists! Mine is short, as our growing space is limited. Preference towards sweeter tomatoes, saladette to slicers; productivity is a plus. Past and current favorites include Ananas Noire, Persimmon, and Sunrise Bumblebee.

My wish list, in order of what I'm hoping most for:

• Maiden’s Gold

• Spears Tennessee Green

• Tennessee Suited

• Goose Creek

• Cherokee Green

Of course, I'll be happy with whatever I receive. Although I've read the spoilers, the surprise will be what's in that bubble mailer.

Moroz Batushka or Ballada might be worth trying... both are very short determinate Russian and Ukrainian varieties under 2 ft. that can be grown in low tunnels. The photo is Moroz which also happens to be an ultra-early and it produced 6 or 7 oz slicers for me in a 1 gallon pot by July 4. If I recall correctly, Ballada fruit is slightly larger and a little later. The fruiting period is concentrated and then the bushes go into a latent stage before giving a 2nd crop later in the year. Just an idea...

[mention]OhioGardener[/mention] Oh my, I might have to have a plant or 2 of those! Not worried about a second fall crop, but the early crop interests me greatly.
