How have your outdoor tomatoes got on?

i unintentionally left a sungold outside and it has given us about 2 trusses with 6-8 toms per truss. it was in a 6 inch pot and not potted on. oops!

I haven't had a gold tom since I was kid and my granda grew them. I used to love them so should perhaps think about some for next year. There are some colours out there I don't think I wuld like though. Starnge when I bet they taste the same.

We had 5 large pots of toms
had so many I was giving them away to anyone and everyone
wasnt picking them quick enough and a fair few split whist stil on the vine

mainly cherry tom (my fave) the others were beefeater and cant remember the name.
Beef eater I had about 8 this took a great deal off lokking after due to the weight etc

Hi I grew a mixture of tomatoes ( 5 vararities) all outside and got great crops of the small ones, Beefsteak were a dissapoinment this year but they all suffered form a kind of Wilt - leaves went brown and curled up also some of the stems, but the tomatoes themselves were fine and I gave a load away. I have been growing tomatoes for some years and they always do well - mostly in pots/containers - and have never had this problem before. I had always done ok with moneymaker but experimented this year, my son and I grew orange tomatoes as well which were fun, but the cherry tomatoes were the sweetest!

cherry toms I can eat a punnet in a day...Mmmmmmm :o)

hi,great i got a lot of small sweet cherry tomatoes for which i kept eating as i picked them and also i got plenty of big tomato's which i grew in a greenhouse,but next year i will try and grow some outside,but i still love the cherry tomatoes as they are my favourites

I think i shall opt for cherry tomatoes next year - a bit bigger than the Hundreds and Thousands but still small. I have grown Gardener's Delight in the past and was pleased with them. I don't like the beefeater ones very much.
