Dixie doesn't log in as often in the winter. I sent her an email so she wouldn't miss your post.

Sorry Boffer! Rolling Eyes

I just saw this thread(just goes to show how much time i've had to look at these) and I thought this would be awesome. You are right, I should have just PM'ed her! Why didn't I think of that! thinking

Alan, I PM'd you my address.

I've got enough seeds for about 5 more people (10-15 seeds) for anyone else interested.

Please may I get some? I will pm my address!

I am trying to do heirlooms this year instead of store seeds. I think these would look great also!

Dixie was kind enuf to send me some seeds last fall.
I plan to try 3 plants so will be starting them this spring.
Right now they are making a home in a jar in my fridge's crisper with some dessicant in the jar to keep them dry.

Thanks to all of you who requested seeds, but I don't have any more right now. The ones who have already PM'd me & gotten my address will be filled, then I'll see if I might have a couple of packs left.

Hey Mz. Dixie a quick question for you that you may have already answered but I missed....Do you start these indoors the same way as any other tomatoe? Any advice to aide in an awesome season?

Yes, treat them as you would any other tomato. The vines do get BIG, so be prepared for that & I always sucker them, at least for a while. I placed mine at the end of my beds last year. A lot of people use 5 gallon buckets, but I didn't have any luck with that. I watered them daily, but I think they just cooked because it was so hot.
