This is a colourful tomato breeding project in its third (F3) generation from the initial cross I made. I saved seeds from most plants in this generation, so expect a lot of diversity. They range from cocktail to grape and cherry sizes. The parents were two of my favourite varieties- a colourful grape tomato with lots of anthocyanin striping, and a small sweet red cherry tomato. Both parents have amazing flavour. There are sure to be some treasures in this mix!

Save seeds from your favourite plant this season and you're on your way to creating your own tomato variety! You'll need to grow it out for several more years, and select your favourite plant from each generation. If you stick with this, over time the traits will stabilize and you can name your variety and share it with the world. Alternately- save seeds from the a handful (or all) of your favourite plants and keep the diversity high. Whatever you choose, you'll get a lot of colour and flavour to play with. 

Growing Instructions

Start indoors 6-8 weeks before planting out date. In southwestern BC, I plant mid-March for planting out mid-May. Seeds benefit from bottom heat when germinating. Grow in full sun. Stake plants with a tomato cage, trellis, or wires. Plants can grow 6+ feet tall depending how you prune and train them. Because the varieties are different colours when ripe, it’s best to use the “squish test” instead of colour to tell when they are ripe- Fruits are ripe when they are slightly soft to the touch (when they “give” a little when gently squeezed with your fingers).
