We lost our first round of tomatoes to pests and disease. This time we started inside, transplanted into 1 gallon pots with the bottoms cut away. Planted those inside 10 gallon grow bags used Happy Frog brown bag. Hand full of bone meal with Trifecta plus (5-10-4). We were able to place a tomato cage for support and put a bird/insect zippered bag with bungee tie at the bottom. Zip ties to the top. The entire thing sits in one of our raised beds.
These little plants are amazing...there's about 30 fruits on it. Your efforts will be rewarded.
We have 1 La Roma IV and 3 Bush supremos.
Planted 6/6/25: sprouted 6/11/25.
They kick "you know what "!

Wow, what an incredible review! We're absolutely thrilled to hear about that 100% germination rate and those amazing results you're getting with your Bush Supremo Roma tomatoes!
I love that protective bird/insect netting system - that's some serious problem-solving! And clearly it's paying off in a big way with 30 fruits on those plants.
Your detailed setup with the Happy Frog soil, bone meal, and that Trifecta fertilizer blend is going to be so helpful for other gardeners looking to maximize their tomato success!
Thank you so much for sharing such a thorough and enthusiastic review. Your experience really highlights what these Bush Supremo Roma plants can do when they're given the right care and protection!
Keep on growing 🌻️

Amazing flavor and very prolific! The size is like no other Roma I’ve grown. A must in my garden!

Really excited to how these tomatoes turn out. I’ve got them going in two 5-gallon lined Epic Gardening fabric grow bags. It is encouraging to have these actually make it past the seedling stage where all my other tomatoes (from other seed companies) ended this year 😢
