My Mohamed is getting almost to the stage it should be re-potted into its final resting (and growing) place, the only gripe will be that it is then too large to keep under growlights - and days are still shorter than needed.

Thanks! This is my first time attempting to grow these compact dwarfs indoors overwinter. I wish I would've had a better germination rate with the Mohamed variety as I'm really quite happy with it's size, somewhere less than 2 ft high (Only one seed germinated for this variety unfortunately).

The Anmore Dewdrop has grown quite large, about 3 ft. I probably should've grown them as a hanging basket, as that's how it's usually grown from what I've read for this variety, I've just given them some support with bamboo. So the three plants of the Anmore Dewdrop that I have growing are these 3 ft high tomato bushes literally sitting on my kitchen table by the window...oops. Been treating the plants to an hour of sun outdoors on some days when the weather is warm enough, but other than that it's been a combination of natural sunlight coming through the window and the 2 grow lights (plus a weekly feeding of diluted fish/seaweed fertilizer). I'm happy to say I'm starting to get several tomatoes developing on the plants now. I have to look into that Russian variety you mentioned, where online could I get it? Will post some more pics soon.
