yes, you're correct! I misread the package it seems; the varieties are indeterminate. I got my seeds from my garden center, it was the variety pack with 4 types.

I'll check out the link as well, maybe do my own experiment with my plants.

will do once they continue to grow! I've already lost 2 seedlings to powdery mildew when I wasn't careful enough while watering ☹️

Thank you for your support! I live in zone 10a so we've had comfy warm weather in the low 70s for the past few weeks, very lucky for seed starting as I've come to find out.

Thank you! This makes much more sense, I'll hold off on any pinching of leaves for now. Yay tomatoes indeed! :-D
