jenn_sc · November 20, 2009

I haven't gotten close to compiling a final list yet (that will probably happen in January, after the holiday rush is over) but I do have some thoughts about next year:

I know I'm going to grow more cherries. My husband loves Matt's Wild Cherry, and typically that is the only cherry I grow. He has asked me to grow more varieties of them this year, b/c they always do well.

I'm thinking that I'll have Sungold, Green Grape, and Black Cherry in addition to the Matt's. Maybe a couple more, too. I plan to do an entire little plot of nothing but cherries.

I have a little friend (9 years old) that LOVES cherry tomatoes, so I am going to help him do a container garden of his own this spring with extra cherries.

I also plan to do a few paste types, too, but I don't know yet which ones. Last year I planted a few Romas and was impressed with their productivity. I definitely want to do "new to me" varieties.

I think I'm going to plant more early to mid season varieties. I love late-season varieties, but most don't do well when our summer heat really cranks up, and I'm sick of growing lots of plants that don't end up amounting to much. (I've only had a few ARGG and AGG in all the years I've grown those two, for instance...and it's disappointing)

As soon as the holidays are over, I'll post a final list.

chalstonsc · November 20, 2009

Jennifer- Know what you mean about too many late-season varieties not amounting to much when the heat around here "cranks up"....all too well. So this year I'm changing course and concentrating on mostly smaller, early-mid season semi-determinates, which I had some luck last year setting a few in late July, and after cutting back in July, regrowing and setting some in the Fall. Don't know if the smaller plant size helps survive the summer better, especially in the containers in which I grow, so I'm also going to try some shorter season determinates, started from seed in May and transplanted to replace the worst Spring plants in early/mid July. You may find as I did last year that Black Cherry will set fruit from transplants put out in July, and cutting back Sungold about then, and allowing it to regrow also got decent results. My list for next year right now, and would appreciate any experience you may have had with any:

Break O'Day
Danko
Early Rouge
Red Paragon
Kiev
Fireball
Marion
Marglobe
Rutgers
Bradley
Homestead
JD's Spec
Galina's
Hanky Red
Redskin
Matchless
Martino's Roma
Heidi
Lime Green Salad
Sophie's Choice

I'm trying Galina's as a PL to see if it resists disease better. You may want to try Juane Flamee in your cherry plot...it did pretty well for me last year.

RJ_Hythloday · November 20, 2009

Based on saved seed, donated seed, and seeds from the t/p swap, next years grow list will likely be 18 plants, I'd like to do 2ea of most so that limits the varieties to 9-11.

Spudatula
Black from Tula
Spudakee purple
Indian stripe
Rutgers
JD's special C Tex
black chery
Aunt Gerties Gold
Supersonic
Mortgage Lifter
Jetstar
Japanese Black Trifele
Opalka

About 10 or 15 more that I'm going to have to research and pick 1 or 2.

AZRuss · November 20, 2009

I'm going for fewer varieties and max flavor. "Definites" so far...

Akers West Virginia
Indian Stripe
Moreton
Brandy Boy
Gary'O Sena
Palla di Fuoco or Moskvich, not both
Sungold
Gardener's Delight

And if I decide to do a super early variety, probably Bloody Butcher this year.

Grub's Mystery Green is my one try-it-out-and-see variety for 2010.

Barbee · November 20, 2009

Pencil list

Lynwood
Stump of the World
Cuostralee
Pink Berkeley Tie Dye
Marianna's Peace
JD's Special C Tex
Ed's New Millenium
Lucky Cross
Striped Roma
1 of Andrey's tomatoes
Spudatula
Spudakee

Note that's 12 maters and I'm cutting way back. Really. I mean it.
Will plant Black Cherry in a container on the deck again.

KLorentz · November 20, 2009

Adding Rouge D'Irak and Brandywine Sudath Strain. Thanks again Carol.

I already feel tortured when thinking of composing my list for 2010. There are so many varieties I would like to grow, but I have to limit myself for several reasons - no more than 80 plants next year!!! There will be the well beloved ones from the last years of course (8 - 10), but the other ones will be new to me. Final decision will be made at the end of the year as I'm still waiting for a special catalog and varieties which I MUST have! clara
