Chipping in from Yorkshire

Hi Guys,
I've been lurking here for a while. I've tried to join TVille a couple of times.. (Without new blood I guess it will eventually just wither away.) It was reading the 'Favourite Cherry Tomato 2023' thread which persuaded me I should pitch in here, tho' its taken me a while to get round to registering. My forum 'home' for the past few years has been the OSSI site, which I can recommend as another source of info. It has certainly helped raise my game.

Hi, Tim! I am from near Liverpool. I think @Amateurinawe is down South and we have another UK member in Bristol.

How is your tomato season going?

Welcome Tim! How did your tomatoes grow in Yorkshire? (My father came from there).

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your welcomesā€¦.

@Josetom Sorry, I canā€™t name A favourite tomato. Three of my favourites are Imur Prior Beta, Rosella and Goatā€™s Tit.

@PlainJane I dabble in a bit of snowdrop breeding, trying (amongst other things) to raise a large flowered yellow. That is the best medium sized yellow so far.

@rossomendblot Iā€™ve just succeeded in updating the location on my profile.

@labradors I havenā€™t yet crunched the numbers on this season, but my feeling is its going well. Size isnā€™t everything, but I was pleased with this Uluru Ochre.

Tim DH

That's an awesome color, Tim. I don't think I've seen one sliced before. What are the color genetics in Uluru Ochre?
