Winter Tomato Challenge We started with 6 cuttings from the plant that grew the 6.83. The plants were grown in 7 gallon pots under a 600 watt HPS light. We still have a few tomatoes on the plants but they will fall somewhere in the middle of this group.

And the last of them. The plants closest to the center were planted out about a week after germination and then we had two weeks of rain and no sun. The backup plants lived inside under grow lights and they have really outgrown the outsiders.

The plant on the right was tight against the door so after the picture I did a quick reposition to get another day or so with the door closed at night.

This is going to be a tough decision because the 1524 backup is the biggest 1524 in the patch but I really want to grow the 1969 and it is doing very well also.
