Had a grape tomato plant that grew very large fruit. There were hundreds of tomatoes in huge clusters. I've never seen anything like it. I wondered if it may have been due to some cross pollination. They were a treat....so yummy.
This year I had two types of Roma plants all from seed saved from last year. Some were regular sized, some looked like Siamese twins and shine we're a little more than twice the regular size. I think they cross pollinated with the beefsteak tomato plant that grew next to a few of them. They are very meaty and tasty.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms oh yes, and I saved them separately. My first thought was to save all the seeds in one container by type, 1 for large 1 for Roma. But now if something is unusual it will go in a separate container as well.
I am new to gardening and I am totally addicted, it's all I think about everyday. I can't stop I just want to grow everything 😂💚 I enjoy your channel and passion, keep it up 👍
*_VERY SMART GARDENING STYLE, WOOOOOWW!!!!, THE RIPE TOMATO FARMS , You are teaching US to be patient with plants,we will not get tired of watching this video, PLEASE DON'T STOP GARDENING, continue like this, GO GO GO GOOOOOOOOOO!!!_*
got lucky and had a volunteer sprout from last year and we here started calling it a tompado because its shaped alot like a yucca pod. very low acidity. i think it got crossed with one of my peppers or a stripped stuffer tom. not sure but loving the surprises this year!!
Bought many types of tomato seeds to try. All of them heirloom. Can’t wait to see what the black brandywine and blueberry tomatoes taste like next year. Homegrown tomatoes are my absolute favorite. So much better than store bought. Jeff you have an awesome green house!!! It’s so well done. 🍅 🙏🏻💙🙏🏻
Jeff, What a good story. I hope they tasted as good as they look. I've just planted up my Toms that I grew from seed 2 weeks ago as our spring weather has started to hit. Cheers
Understand that is how hybrid are developed and yet some of your consumers are going to be upset and expect to get what you promised. Hopefully they are having some good tomatoes and be a sport and forgive you,We all need to sharpen our pencil over and over. I hope they treat you good. The problem looks like a pretty delicious problem to have. Thank you for the teaching Sir and we learn from failure to, I started saving a few seeds and plan to get the tiny bags to keep bees away but I didn't so my seed might surprise me.
I don't think he said he was selling those hybrid seeds.🤔 I don't think he plans to save them. If he does, it will be for one of his EPIC experiments! Gotta love Jeff! He's a gardening hero!🏅 Blessings to you! ♥️
Plans for the Big Brandy wine hybrid and not planning to save it's seeds, It's not to expensive to buy it's seeds and if they give a Brandy wine flavor tomatoes and more fruit and also bigger fruit and a healthy plant you bet I will be buying more of them hybrid seeds and call it's a great deal. Now I hope all of my heirlooms are available in good-great hybrid seeds. I will say your videos are very helpful and full of information"SIR" thanks.
Thank you for the excellent information as always! Looking into my first greenhouse for next year and researching as much as possible to be productive for our family and neighbors too. Love your channel because of your gardening style and great personality toward others 😎👍
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms my neighbor always grows heirloom tomatoes and they are still the tastiest I have ever had. I am so looking forward to next season for my own if the seeds that he gave to me 🌞🌼
An accidental basil hybrid volunteered in my garden this year, I'm pretty sure it's a cross of sweet basil and thai basil. It isn't fertile however, and hasn't grown very tall. It is a cool plant though, it's fall and it still hasn't bolted. The leaves are tender, too bad the flavor is kind of a generic basil peppery flavor and no real depth beyond that.

I made some bizarre tomatoes by accident somehow my cherry an large tomato seeds ended up with my California poppy flowers! Now I have all three growing it’s so strange
Great video. I am planting a number of different heirloom tomatoes next year. How far apart would the have to be to ensure no cross pollination happens. Or should I just hand pollinate and bag one flower on each plant?
Honestly Bev, I've grown them side-by-side (observing typical tomato plant spacing) with no problems. If you're worried, I'd just move that to 4 feet for the varieties you KNOW you'll be taking seeds from.
Your hybrid looks like a giant cherry tomato lol! Very cool! I save seeds like a squirrel. Didn't realize I may not get the same plant. Eek! soon we will find out
I just realized I accidentally cross pollinated an Orange Hat Tomato with Yellow Pear Tomato. I’m going to go ahead and see what becomes of it. Will be interesting since the OH is a dwarf that only gets about 6 inches tall and the YP is an indeterminate that gets over 10 feet high. 🤔 It’s kind of like crossbreeding a chihuahua with a Great Dane. 😜

You're so right Emy....the Earliana are fleshy enough to slice thin and make sun dried tomatoes from.....for pizza? AHHMAZING! :-)

Right on John! Its never a true failure if we learn from the process (and the outcome) and come back stronger because of it! :-)
What indoor lighting schedule do you have for your tomato sprouts?
Did you decide to try to stabilize the new hybrid?
Looks like a very fun (life-long) side project

Oooooh man....could you imagine? ;-)
that's a fun hybrid! too bad you don't have a large space where you could dedicate a bed to see what happens next generation. I'd be so curious
Well Dave, we're saving seeds just in case.... ;)
Your like Dr.Frankentomato. I think I'll try that just 4 kicks.
question is what do they taste like?
Amazing. Sweet, slightly acidic.
Nice music
I had the same unfortunate occurrence with my peppers last year. Anyone want a very hot bell pepper?
That actually sounds kinda awesome Brian.....but it depends on HOW hot, LOL!
Where can I buy from you? I really want to support your efforts! Blessings!
