My tomato list for '13

[Kolesar]

10. Cultivated "Geronimo" from seed for use as "storage tomatoes"

I have grown Burpees' Long Keepers and stored them for use through early November. This year, I am trying the variety: Geronimo. I read on another forum that Geronimo is a good choice for storage. It is a long season tomato, about 85 days, IIRC. The Johnny's Seeds packet describes them as "greenhouse tomatoes".

I used to pick the Long Keepers when green in early September. I would wipe them with bleach solution then put them on a tray in our basement. Our basement is not a very cool spot because we have insulation below the slab. It has to do! Some tomatoes spoil, but I always had dozens of tomatoes in October.
