Oh, my gosh! I think I would grow this just for the flowers! Very nice!  |

That looks like a stem of flowers, not flowers for tomatoes.

It does look like an ornamental flower stalk!

It looks like it will bear a lot of tomatoes. I hope so!
And I really LOVE your new avatar. It's a keeper!

So as it turns out, I've realized that I mixed up my plans for my tomatoes. I meant to grow the Rosy Finch in the Sprout, and the Inkspot in my iDOO. This one is too tall for a sprout without pruning... I've been meaning to clean it up but I haven't had time, so I finally did it tonight. Here is the before and after. You can see the burns from the lights and other parts of the plant that died from not enough light:   |

I may regrow this in a taller/larger machine later.  |

I saw and purchased one at my local Walmart too. $69! First grow was microgreens using the seed tray. Successful! Like the idea of using for a tomato, will see what happens next ...

If you're planning on growing tomatoes, just be careful to pick a variety that stays short enough - the Inkspot Tomato is a bit too tall for a Sprout, but if you want a recommendation, I grew the Orange Hat Tomato before and was really happy with it  |

These aren't looking like inkspots to me.  |

Hmmm...maybe they are not yet ripe? Some of them definitely are not ripe, but I would have expected the darker part to form before the tomatoes starting changing color. I'll keep an eye on them and see if anything changes. |

I tend to agree with you, seems like they would have that darker tinge starting...maybe they will be super tasty!!! |
