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 . |

Many thanks for the link, Leroy. I will sow some seeds tomorrow and will get some more bamboo cane for the support .

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. |
