Notes

(date approx)

2014-08-07: Flowering and transplanted to a larger pot on north-facing balcony with a cage. I think this may be a red cherry tomato variety.

2014-10-04: Caged a second flowering volunteer plant on the south-facing balcony. I think this may be the olive variety. Gave away a bunch of other seedlings

2014-10-26: Red cherry variety has a few ripe tomatoes. Repotted 2 September seedlings to Earthbox on south-facing balcony.

2014-12-14: Retired not-very-productive plant.

2015-01-09: Retired remaining not-very-productive plants.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
