5.8 Osmala (Big Zac) ’13 (F: 4.37 Osmala x M: self)
4.46 Marley ’11 (F: 7.33 Hunt x self)

*Note: that should read 5.8 Osmala (not 6.8)
-Seeds were started on December 2nd, 2013
-Germination occurred on December 11th, 2013
-Initially put in the greenhouse on December 18th, 2013

Well, this off-season, I am happy to report there will also be some giant tomato plants growing in the greenhouse, for those that want to see something other than pumpkins;-). While I have grown tomatoes before the main goal has been eating so we will see how this project turns out. They will be planted in the same raised bed as the pumpkins so there will be plenty of area for the roots to spread.

I am not sure how the tomatoes will react to the greenhouse environment in the winter but I figure, it is worth a try.
