Living in Edmonton, AB, Early Girl is a common variety of tomato to grow for our shorter season. I was delighted to find this Bush variety (didn’t know it existed!) and was extremely pleased with the results. The flavour was excellent, thin skin, not too acidic; the perfect slicer tomato. Like a grocery store on-the-vine-type tomato but better flavour. I will likely grow two plants next year (pushing one out as early as possible), staggered 3-4 weeks apart for longer yield.
“Compact space saving plants produce good early yields of excellent flavor for an early tomato.” CHECK.
“Produces huge yields on small bushy plants” CHECK.
“Plant Size: 3’ ” CHECK.
Be sure to use some kind of support due to heavy fruit set on a small plant. Either a strong cage or a flimsy 30” 3-ring with a centre support stake.
