#sungoldtomato — Public Fediverse posts

@carstenfranke So, having grown up around tomatoes, I'm thinking they are #Brandywine heirloom tomato crossed with one of the yellow-fruited heirlooms. From the article: "There are a number of other yellow-fruited heritage cherry tomato varieties to choose from – ‘Galina’, ‘Gold Nugget’ and ‘Golden Sunruse’ are a few alternatives to consider." Bookmarking the article for future #GardeningExperiments! TY!

And yes, I bought the #SungoldTomato seedlings from the farmstand this year (I alternate between that and growing my own from seed), so they are the same stock.

So, did a #SungoldTomato taste test tonight (say that ten times fast). The ones from the farmstand were bigger than ours, but not as tasty. As for ours, the ones grown in containers and in the #CommunityGarden were on the small side, but delicious. And, the ones from the garden had just a wee bit more sweetness. I still have a couple more tomato plants that could use bigger spaces, so I'll add some composted soil, then plant those in the community garden. I still have plenty of room, especially since I harvested the two potato plants recently.

Yay! #SunGoldTomato plants have been spoken for, and selectboard neighbor snagged one and thanked me for the #PlantSwap suggestion! TBH, I'm really grateful to be able to interact with more neighbors. A lot of the folks I've known for a while have moved or are thinking about moving. Time to make some new friends!

Went over to the #CommunityGarden today (planting more sunflowers, beans, squash and onions), and was delighted to see that the #PlantSwap has started! I picked up a couple of #Blueberry plants and will be leaving some #SunGoldTomato plants for others!
