Default Pinocchio Orange

So I decided I needed to get in on these micro dwarves to scratch the itch over the winter. I ordered some Pinocchio Orange (Pinokkio Oranzhevyj ) from Hertige Seed Market. (http://heritageseedmarket.com/index....io-oranzhevyj/)

I'm curious to hear of anyone's experiences with this tomato. I'm guessing grown indoors by a sunny patio door will give similar results from person to person. What's the DTM you've had?

I bought some of these too and am curious of growing experiences for this one.

It seemed to be the most interesting micro tomato I could find and the only one I could grow for my brother who has very limited space.

I also bought Pinnochia seeds to grow next year, along with another tiny one, Yellow Canary.

I recommend another micro dwarf : HAHM GELBE TOPFTOMATE;
It grows under 12" tall. Here is a picture. It is from internet. But I grew one this year myself. Looked similar.
Plus, it is early too.

Gardeneer, thanks! By early do you recall the DTM from sowing or transplant, and was that indoor or outdoor? Also, how was the flavor?

I only only know approx plant out: Late April >>>> First ripe June 24.
Considering that our temperatures were in 50s to high 60 until then. Our summers weather start around mid July. With warm weather probably you can get a DTM of under 60.
