Kath,
I see your still planting a great deal of varieties and I wish you the best. I've gone the other direction, from growing hundreds of varieties to just my best of the favorites from over the years. Last year I got down to 23 tomato plants. This year I hope to reduce that number to about 10-12 at the most.
All are slicers, mostly pinks, but an occasional black still in the mix. They are:

German Johnson-Benton Strain: grafted to maxifort rootstock (seed from last years plants, which were the best tasting and most impressive tomato I ever grew).

German Johnson-Benton Strain: From original seed from Dana.

Purple Dog Creek: Last years second best, Number one the year before. (2011)

Liz Birt: A tasty pink cross between Brandywine and Cherokee Purple that has been the first to ripen last year and previous years.

Brandywine-Glicks: large pink Brandywine that surpasses most other Brandywines including Sudduth's most years.

Brandywine-Sudduth's: Another large tasty pink Brandywine that usually is a little less productive than Glick's or Cowlick's.

Cowlick's: A large pink Brandywine that has been exceptional over the years, out- producing both BW-Glick's and BW-Sudduth's most years. Original P.L. but also a R.L. variety discovered by Jon in Ala.

Barlow Jap: A large pink tomato that resembles the better pink brandywines but usually ripens earlier.

BW-CXDDR: A large pink Cowlick Brandywine-Dana's Dusky Rose cross that's been a favorite for the last five years now. The best of both, with the larger size of the BW.

Dana's Dusky Rose: The best tasting of the black tomatoes. More medium-sized than other dark favorites, but oh, so good.

Bear Creek: Another cross between Pink Brandywine and Cherokee Purple but this one is on the dark side of Cherokee Purple. Great taste but not as large as the other BW-CP crosses.

Wishing all a great growing season and lots of gardening enjoyment!

I'm also growing it for the first time and wasn't able to find a review either. Btw, I'm probably not the only one wondering why Caspian Pink is missing from your list.:cute:

Caspian Pink January 25, 2013 06:53 PM

Kath,
Caspian Pink was the first tomato I grew. After growing many more varieties, there are others that I like more and there are also more new ones than I have space for. So, it didn't have a chance to get onto my grow list.

My husband hasn't seen the list yet. It's best not to mention it until it's too late and they are ready to go in the ground?!? :twisted:

It's a list that's still in flux as I am still acquiring a few more. Oh, my it's an agonizing process, isn't it?! I've got to keep it under 90... last year it was 87 and I WAS going to cut down the list.

NOTE: I got Momotaro OP from Wintersown in 2012. I sent some of my own saved seed to the large swap run by Heather in Canada this year. I have never grown the F1, so I can't tell you how close they are to each other. The fruit were pink, medium sized, slightly oval and really sweet. In the photo of my son in my avatar, he is holding a Momotaro OP. The plant wasn't particularly large in 2012, but it was an unusual season.

checkerkitty January 25, 2013 11:37 PM

I've already started my seed. I started one batch 12/19/12 and one a few days after. From memory (which is pretty bad at times), this is my list:

Brandy Boy (OP seed sent by a friend)
1884 Yellow Pinkheart
Brown Sioux (seed sent by a friend)
Yellow Sweet 100 (OP seed sent by a friend)
Rose Quartz Multiflora
Casino Chips
Big Cheef F6
Indian Stripe
Brown and Black Boar
Gary'O Sena
JD's Special C-Tex Early Black
Azoychka
Spudakee
Bloody Butcher
Lemon Boy (DH loves this one)
Sibirskiy Velikan Rozovyi
Russian Queen
Dino Eggs
Tomesol
Blush
Purple Russian
Daniels
Hege German Pink
Purple Dog Creek
Aunt Ginny's Purple
Stump of the World
NOT Stump of the World (one seed is RL. I'm growing that little plant out!!)
Ethel Watkin's Best
Paul Robeson
Haley's Purple Comet

"The Dwarfs"
Most of the released varieties from the Dwarf Project.
New Big Dwarf
Extreme Bush
Dwarf Golden Champion


I have a few runts. If they decide to grow, I'll also have:

Dice's Mystery Black
Not Black Cherry
Andrew Rahart's Jumbo
Grape

I'm also going to try my hand at grafting. I picked up a pack of Celebrity starts at Lowes. I haven't decided which heirlooms I'm going to graft. I planted WAY too many seeds, though. I think I'm sitting on 250 to 300 plants right now. I have a few extra to experiment with. I'll be using aquarium airline tubing to hold the grafts together.

Christy

PS- To those Tomatovillians who were so very generous and sent me some of the seed for the tomatoes you see listed above, I send a hearty thanks. My garden and dinner table will be all the richer for your generosity. My taste buds salute you!!

kath January 26, 2013 09:28 AM

Thanks to everyone who's posted a list so far- love to see the results of everyone's careful planning.

Joe- it's good to know that I'm not the only one who has fun looking at all these amazing lists- small or huge, it's interesting to see what everyone chooses; though I admit I'm always relieved to see that mine list is still shorter than many others but I'm encouraged by those who show more restraint. I wish you luck paring down your 2012 list and holding to your goal of 80 for next year.

Robin, thanks for your input about Momotaro op- I grew the hybrid twice and don't remember any elongation but the size was the same as in your photo. Looks like many will be growing it this year so we'll see what we get. So happy to see that there's someone that will be growing even more cherry tomato varieties than I have! I'll be trying to keep mine pruned early in the season until I taste some fruits to see which ones I like the best.

Checkerkitty, I think you've got a great list AND a great memory!

Long or short- please post it!

Thanks- kath
