Welcome to the Junction, @Npowers! I'm in central Texas where it's currently 100% and sunny.

I've lightly played with growing from seed a few times over the last decades. But will be diving in deep growing open-pollinated and heirlooms (oh, ok, except for the hybrid Sungold :) ) from seed for 2025. Will be growing a variety of dwarves (most from the Dwarf Tomato Project) and two or three heirlooms TBD. All in containers.

That Sungold! The only one my not-a-tomato-fan-husband says I have to grow every year. Am planning to try Dwarf Eagle Smiley next year as a possible substitute - have you tried that?

Welcome to the Junction, Npowers.

Lauren hasn't clued you in that we're really a fake web forum, just a bunch of AI bots, scraping data from other sites?
