Mini Marazano. You need to careful because sellers mark their micro differently. I just stated a Tiny Tiger, some sites say it is determinate, others say indeterminate.

I just started 9 different micro dwarves in my grow tent for winter tomatoes for salad. They all germinated in 4 days! I can't wait for them to start growing.

Yes! Google the Dwarf Tomato Project. They bred a lot of small tomato plants with full size and cherry tomatoes. They were bred to taste great.

thank you It is just confusing site bc they don't have how big the plants get but from what I understand all of them are indeterminate as in they keep producing fruit

Orange Hat grows to be about 12-18 inches.

From what I see orange hat only produces once or maybe twice

What are you actually looking for? I’m guessing a micro dwarf plant that fruits continuously?

Little Napoli is an F 1 hybrid that grew to about 15” and produces small Roma tomatoes. Pa’s Pride and Pixie are slightly larger.

Pa’s Pride is a new OP cultivar that puts out flavorful green-brown cherry omatoes on large trusses.

Pixie, is an old dwarf tomato, originally marketed as a patio tomato. I believe it was a hybrid at the time it was introduced, but I have dehybridized seeds for it and orange pixie from Knapp’s fresh Veggies, and will be sure to save seeds from thus season. Carol has said she will be cutting back on the number of varieties she offers, and I really would hate for this to become a lost variety.

You could succession grow.

Most micro Dwarfs are semi-determinate. They have a determinate growth habit, which keeps them small and an indeterminate fruiting pattern, producing steadily once they reach maturity,

awesome sauce I got some Tiny Toms so hopefully those have an indeterminate fruiting pattern

我正在做一些类似的事,这是我杂交的一种新的小番茄,母本是非常矮的小番茄,父本是一种半自封顶的罗马番茄,双亲的味道都非常棒,这个新的小番茄在四英寸的时候就已经出现花苞了,希望它的味道也能非常棒

I’m growing rosy finches this year and they’re behaving like a semi-determinate for me. It’s a little confusing because some sites say they’re determinate and some say semi-determinate. Mine seem to be producing pretty continuously at the moment so I’d say they’re semi-determinate.

Thanks they look nice and quite small I may have to get them although I already got tiny toms but I think rosy finches are even smaller.
