Planted yesterday in my new bounty. Brads atomic grape tomato. For some reason I did not research this correctly and its a behemoth of a plant. I will experiment though and try to prune heavy if needed. Gotta try it once! Maybe it will fail, at least something to do haha.

Following..
Like you I will try anything once. If it works I will grow again, if not at least I gave it a go.

Day 16. Finally reduced to the final winner. I have a thyme and parsley temporarily sharing some major light so they can grow a bit before moving them to the herb garden.

I do that all the time..use prescious hood light rather than letting it go to waste! Tom looks great!

Day 25. Its getting flower buds. Should I pinch them off? Feels too early for them. Also, hows it looking? Been awhile since I grew tomato. Some leaves are getting a bit crispy.

Well it is a huge one but happy to see the tomatoes. Looking forward to the taste test.
Sorry to hear about your daughter. I hope she is better now.

This big plant is still going! Producing lovely tomatoes. I'm not a tomato fan but these sure are different! No acidity. No bitterness. Almost sweet. We just pick a couple off and have them as treats. I would recommend Brad's atomic grape tomatoes to anyone looking to try something different.

Oh, this is good to see! I ordered some seeds a couple of weeks ago just because they looked cool, but seeing yours alive and well in an AG is encouraging!
