    Proof that tomatoes are a fruit, September 13, 2009

    First off, nothing I have purchased from Hirst has produced anything like the pictures, I’m positive they turn up the saturation on the photos for emphasis. However, nothing I have purchased from Hirsts has disapointed me either. The seeds came with instructions good enough for a novice planter.

    In the Rocky Mountain region around 70% of my seeds sprouted but only a small percent of those sprouts survived due to stubborn seed hulls. The plants that survived have done well and love to climb. The tomatoes I’ve gotten are a slightly darker red with green stripes and splotches, about the size of a Roma. The tomatoes are unusually fleshier than most and have more of a plum sweetness to them making them great for eating by themselves. Drying them brings out a hint of apple, again making them great alone or with a salad.

    Got the seeds faster then expected, and the tomatoes they produced, were wonderful.
    I’ll grow these from now on.

    My first time to ‘start’ plants from seeds indoors. they were slow to start, I was sure I had failed, but eventually I had almost 75 ‘startlings’ of these I had at least 15 viable plants (my fault, not the seeds) when it was practical I put them in buckets, planters, old water bottles, and slowly but surely in the ground, an above ground planter I had made- I had never eaten real tomatoes before obviously— it was amazing, go outside in the mornings, pick a warm ripe absolutely delicious dark tomato or 2 and make a ‘mater’ sandwhich for breakfast every morning. I had so many that I had to come up with a way to preserve them so here came the green bags and I had a refrigerator drawer full before I knew it. I was sorry to see the season end.
    I highly recommend these wonderful tasty tomatoes, if I can do it— anyone can. Just takes time and determination.
