.. it was a sungold - but wasnt quite as ripe as I hoped - almost there but a bit on the sharp and tangy side!
Can't wait for some more to be ready!

Oh, sounds lovely. I have probably quite a while to wait for mine.Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These
(he points to some plastic cows on the table) are very small; those (pointing at some cows out of the window) are far away...

I have lots of green ones teasing me, patience isn't my thing

Just checked and I have a sungold about 2-3 days from ready! Yum.Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed.

Well done, was it just grown 'normally' or was it topsy?, as my topsy as got lots of flowers developing now and except for planting it up is a lot easier to maintain than my normal ones imo.:beer:2016 Money challenge - £2900

Well done ! Was that a greenhouse grown one or outdoors? I have a couple of yellow tumbling tomato plants, each having one tomato which looks as if it's on the turn. Always a day for celebrating the first home grown tomato of the year. Don't we get excited about simple things?0

thanks all... yeah, it is lovely though isn't it Primrose? - I can't wait till the rest catch up - the tigerella shouldnt be too long behind!
They are in a greenhouse, and conventionally grown, not upside-down!!
Has anyone grown 'thai pink egg'? Mine are starting off ivory coloured, rather than green - they are quite pretty!0 -

TOP TIP But keep it under your hat sprinkle a Little garden lime around your tomato plants be careful that it doesn't touch the stem and water it in for a sweeter tomato. or add some to the watering can and water in.The solving of a problem lies in finding the solvers.0

Picked my first Gardener's Delight on Saturday - greenhouse grown, from seed. Outdoor Incas aren't too far behind, thanks to this recent spell of warm weather. It'll be interesting to see what they're like as it's the first time I've grown them.0
