Review: Even a very unlikely old lady can grow them! - I am a Louisiana grandmother. My Dad was a champion of tomato growing. I have never had a fraction of his ability or success. He propagated heirloom tomatoes from seed. San Marzano seeds, nursery seedlings, or even in our small town grocery stores were available. I ordered these seeds last spring, along with others, plus nursery started seedlings. They are awesome. They continue to grow and produce way into the fall. I tied them up like my dad did, but they continued growing and growing, spilling over the other garden plants and bushing up on the ground. It was looking for Easter eggs. I just ordered several packets, to start later indoors. I am going to grow a whole garden full! (with my son’s considerable help). Review: Not Your Everyday Tomato - I love to cook. I love Italian cuisine. I love homemade salsa and pasta sauces and I love garden fresh tomatoes. For years I have been going to my local big box store and buying a small variety of tomato seeds, usually cherry tomatoes (for salads), big boy hybrids (for sandwiches,sauces and canning) and romas (for making sauces and general use). I buy seeds and avoid buying the overpriced plants because I like to have it my way and starting seeds, cultivating plants and harvesting the seasons production is quite satisfying. So this year I thought I would branch out a bit and see what the San Marzano tomato was all about. I've read about how meaty they are, how sweet they are and how flavorful they are, but until you actually grow and cultivate some for yourself, you are never sure how well the advertisement stands up to actual results. It will be at least 2 months before I actually have a tomato to eat, but so far, so good. I started with 8 4" peat pots, filled each with garden soil and added 3 seeds to each pot. 8 days later I have 22 plants about 1/2" tall. After they start to put on leaves I will cull out the runts and plant the remainder in my above ground planters that I use specifically for my tomatoes and herbs. The advertisement states that each packet of seeds contains 200mg of seeds, about 100 seeds. I believe that is correct and after using about 1/4th of the quantity of seeds, I have plenty left for next year. I placed the remainder in my seed catalog and depending on this years results, will grow more in the coming couple of years. The price of $6 for a packet of seeds might seem expensive to some, but considering the high germination rate and at least 100 seeds, you'll get a lot of tomatoes for that price. I typically pay about $1.50 to $2 for a much smaller packet of seeds, so I'm pleased with the price. I have also factored in the fact that I can save the unused portion of this packet for future plantings, so I can get multiple years of gardening from a single packet of seeds. I'll update this review later in the summer to report on how well, how many and how delicious these tomatoes are, good or bad, but I have high expectations that these seeds are going to produce a lot of tomatoes. For those of you who are having problems with germination, here's something that you might want to try. Prepare your starting pots or seed trays by filling them with quality soil. I recycle a lot of my garden soil and starting seedlings doesn't require a lot of dirt. After filling each with soil, slightly tamp the soil down until it has a smooth surface. Don't compress the soil, but just get it so the surface is level and smooth. After that, depending on the size of your planting cups, put 2-3 seeds on top of the soil and then lightly sprinkle dirt over the seeds to a depth of no more than 1/4 to 3/8" deep and lightly water. Do not soak the soil and over saturate the soil. Place in an area that receives strong morning sunlight and water again each evening when there will be less evaporation. You should see seedlings in about 7-10 days. ## Features - πŸ… CLASSIC TOMATO - San Marzano is a paste type tomato great for salsa, sauces and Italian dishes - πŸ… FLAVORFUL - San Marzano tomatoes pack a punch with flavor.
