I have finally found time to investigate the "Karma" tomatoes. I really didn't know what that was all about in Marsha's grow out for 2017-18 since I am away a lot so miss some of these threads. Tonight I read this from beginning to end - it reads like a wonderful adventure or mystery story where there is a twist at every corner and you have to keep reading to see how it turns out. I am very excited for you two and for the rest of us as well who will benefit from some fascinating new varieties. Thanks for sharing this development - a true, very educational documentary on how one creates and stabilizes new varieties. Awesome!!

Marsha,
Do that! I think you will be amazed yourself at the energy, great interaction, and delight expressed in the postings as well as how much you have accomplished. You may see your unfinished end results at the moment but the adventure getting there would be fun for you to re-experience!! Looking forward to hearing about your present grow outs and what you get! |

It’s been a fun ride for sure and I value the friendship that has grown along with the tomatoes very much.
Getting closer to stable, excited very soon to see ripe fruits! KarenO |

Been busy lately and haven't had much time on TVille. Seeing an update on these Karmas is great! It might be hard to pick a favorite, but do you have a favorite flavor of the group Marsha?
