Marv.

On top of Brush Mountain, Pa.

There is a lot of prize money on the table for one really big tomato this year. The weather is warming up and tomato growers everywhere should be starting the quest, especially for an 8 pound tomato. I have sent out hundreds of different tomato seeds and have received quite a few in return as well. Some are started and some are not but soon will be. I wish everyone well this season and hope that someone somewhere can come up with an 8 pound tomato. Try doing some grafting and maybe even making a few crosses. I am out of seeds for now but should have more available for those in need next season. Good growing to all. Marv

Hi Marv!

I've read your book twice, dog eared the crap out of it.
Tons of high lighter marks in the areas I really need to work on.
I have the right toamtoes growing and my tomato patch prepared and ready to accept the seedlings.

I have an angel on one shoulder and a demon on the other for good measure.

Let the contests begin!

Now that the prize money is this high, I guess we'll have to try a little harder this season. LOL. We have some great seeds for 2013 & are looking to give Gordon & the 8# mark a run for it's money. We'll be starting our seeds next week. Good luck to everyone.
