Sometimes "bastard" seedlings work

Of the 12 plants I got from my father in law the three I put in a huge pot, against a western facing wall (extended warmth at night), managed the shade, watered with rainwater and heavily fertilised with potash. Well it worked.


And the payback is these fantastic scarlet tomatoes that are just sitting forever on the vine, begging me to pick them.

So sometimes a gamble is fun.
