Default Furry Yellow Hog tomato

Hello all,

Have you grow it before ? I got a package of it but got no information about it.
How long does it take to mature from transplant ?
How big will it grow ? does it taste good ?
Any extra growing tip are very welcome .

Many thanks in advance .

I am sure there is someone here that has grown this. I wonder if it is fuzzy?

I received Furry Yellow Hog as a free pkt. of seeds from B.C. I sowed the seeds a couple weeks ago and the seedlings are up and doing well.

Here is what I know about FYH. It is a novelty variety grown by Brad Gates of Wild Boar Farm's (California breeder). It is a yellow/green and white striped peach slightly fuzzy tomato that is juicy and middle maturing. The grower said he remembers it as having a slight honey taste. Cant wait to see how this one turns out.

Good luck with yours.

Barefootgardener,

I got my seeds from B.C. too it was a free package due to delayed in mailing (they were having ice storm). I am very excited about it. Please up date how your FYH doing . I just sow couple of seeds together with the White Oxheart. Thanks for the info, really looking forward to tasting it (if it fruit on time).
Happy easter everyone .
