Interesting feedback @dreirik , thanks!
Our spring was rather cool but not cold. In May/June it was partly hot and dry. July was cool and rainy.
I have #sunviva in two greenhouses and outside in another garden. Neither sunviva nor #vivaroma from @opensourcegardens impressed me too much. Taste, yield, vigour and germination rate (~50%) were far below expectations. A lot of the fruit burst open. As other #tomatoes struggled far less, I wouldn't have considered to give them a 2nd chance next year.
That's a bit of a disappointment @opensourcegardens
The germination rate of the seeds in my starter kit from the #ConnectingGardens initiative is between 0% for #Märchenglanz, #Märchengranat and #Märchensnack (marked orange in photo) and ~50% for #Vivaroma (green) , #sunviva (blue)
The rest of the seed tray is mostly self saved seed. Some is 6+yrs old. Germination rate is ~100%.
Sowing date 18 March.
Any idea what happened?

Thanks to @opensourcegardens for the swift delivery of my starter kit from the #ConnectingGardens initiative.

The #littleBeauties become bigger 🙂 There are seedlins of all sorts of OpenSource tomatoes that I have - so far there is one of the OpenSource pepper "Pleated tangerine" and 4 of the OpenSource "Blackheart" pepper/chili and so far none of the "Bubblegum" chili.
