8 Contestants, 4 Places- Which Tom Wins?
(drumroll) I've got eight tomato plants & only four grow bags for them. Tonight on GoY, you the growers get to decide. Who gets planted on my luxurious, south-facing patio & who gets 'donated'...
(interminable pause)
Just post the numbers for your choices below!
Viewers with a red button should consult a doctor...
Really hoping the photo is big enough after that build up ;o)

Super, smashing, great! Greenfingers.
It's a good answer but it's not right ☺

I wouldn't donate any, I'd find somewhere for all of them, lol, however as you asked so nicely I will cooperate, I - 3 - 5 - 8....

Good answer! Thank you caller...
Remember you get nothing for two in a bed

Lincslass in the lead here by a considerable margin.
Deadline 6pm Thursday then I'm planting 'em.

Although I'm not eligible, I would go with 1, 4, 7, & 8. They look like they could be planted the deepest and have the greenest top growth.

Thanks Wylie, I'm sure you're extremely eligible...
1 & 8 taking a clear lead now but which will end up orphans? All to play for here!😄

Give us a clue, are they all the same variety? If so, shame on you;-)

If they are all same, then 4,5,6 & 8 'cos thye look more advanced in growth

If not, tell us the varieties and we can take it from there

All the same Costoluto GG, all sown at the same time & given exactly the same conditions & watering almost to the minute.

So, as we come up to the home straight it's 8 the clear leader, 4, 5 & 1 neck & neck to place. 3, 6 & 7 bringing up the rear & 2 an early faller.
Yes, that's confirmed. The screens have been put up around No.2, even the seaweed tonics won't help there I'm afraid.

Any last orders?! 25 mins left...
Last chance for giving advice?

1, 5, 7 and 8 for me Darren. I look forward to seeing which ones win.

Ooh, in at the last minute there Thorney. Bugger! Does that mean I have to work it out again...

VOTES CLOSED NOW.
Thank you participants☺

Gawd sake, I can't maintain the corny quiz show catchphrases or the horse racing schtick any longer!
The finishing order is: 8. 5 & 1 equal. Then 4.
I've been diligent keeping them in order & those are the ones that'll be put into their growing spots shortly.

I thought I had 6 more hours to decide since I"m in New York. Oye Vey! I would get more grow bags for the others.

18 Apr, 2019

 

Would have said 1, 3, 5, 8, but missed the deadline! Well done Darren for being original!!

You snooze you lose!😄

I'm sure people didn't know what they were voting for, can we have another go?

Nice brexit reference GG.
The toms are all planted now but I'll find somewhere appropriate & post pics as they progress.
Thanks for making it fun☺
