I don't see any life back there in the corner in this pod so will try another 'breed'. LOL  I found an old Mighty Mini Tomato pod so will plant it today to see if it'll sprout and I also added nutes. I thot it was time for a change. This will give me two varieties to pick from.  See ya in about a week.  |

It will be fun to have two varieties at a time going!

Well well well, today I do see life in that back corner pod. After adding the nutes yesterday he seemed to want to sprout today.  As mentioned above, I've added another variety so will have three toms to choose from shortly.   |

Someday, when I have a free machine, I would love to try growing different varieties together.
It sounds like an exciting project.

One week now and the second pod doesn't seem to want to sprout. I'll leave it another week than toss if nothing happens. That rear pod is doing fine. Looks like at least two stems are trying to grow up there so I'll need to thin that down to one in a week or two.

R&R and nutes on day 15 today. Nothing much to see but a little growth.
Oh, the other never did germinate so I trashed it. :-(

First, day 29, nutes added and things look very promising with this little guy.
Second, I've planted another tomato plant. It's a Red Sweetie Cherry Tomato plant. Two seeds planted from Frontier Seed Co. (ebay) I planted today cuz of nutes for all so it will get nutes along with the others.
A string of long cluster toms will be an interesting grow project in a Harvest AG machine, IMO.

That plant(Sweetie Cherry Tomato.) grows to 8 feet tall and cascades if I read the specs right, rick. I am hoping you are starting it in the small machine and planting it in a pot or n the ground?  |

I read the same thing about the sweeties. Maybe Rick can keep them contained.

We'll just have to see how things go, I mean grow. LOL.
Day 36 is an amazing growth. After cropping off the top it went into shock for a couple days then took off outward with a nice spread.
And that little guy up front has also begun to sprout. It's day 8 now. Had to remove the heat dome this past weekend. He was touching the top.

Day 43 looks nice. Added nutes and am debating on weather to move this one or the smaller one.

I believe I'll start another thread for this Sweetie Tomato plant. Meanwhile, on day 15 I added nutes, and things are looking pretty good so far.

Heirloom Cherry Tomatoes (AG) day 64 was a R&R with nutes added as well. Some minor root trimming too. It's lookin' pretty healthy to me.

Sweety Tomatoes day 36 in the same Harvest machine. Not real sure this baby will survive the R&R.
Here's a little bonus...
