Uow weights.
6.93 was dmg. The early harvest, plus a rough slow start means it didnt reach its potential. But I'm happy with this result. Again my fault it wasn't 10 + lbs? 6.93 Clayton uow/ dmg. 6.02 La Rue x open.
The 6.02 la rue seed isnt totally consistent but out of 9 plants it delivered a few blossoms that should have been 10+. So thats good. The odds are at least 1/3 to get a big tomato, even when not going for the first truss!
Is that enough tomato growing? Well the 2.04 is a cross between the 1st and 3rd largest tomatoes so far this season... Its the 9.5 Clayton (grew 10.06) x 5.16 Greene (grew 7.04). So, 2.04 Clayton uow.
The 1.90 is crossed with the gmo purple cherry tomato. (6.02 la rue x Norfolk purple). 1.90 Clayton now.
Last of all I tried some "big oxheart" tomatoes the biggest was 1.13 lbs and this is hardly impressive... 1.13 Clayton x giant tomato.
That's all the controlled crosses I made. Weak sauce!!! Room for improvement. Sorry I didnt make any epic crosses but the fact is I am still learning.
