    Do any boarders know/think it possible to plant some tomatoes from seed as of now in my greenhouse (non heated but gets seriously hot with new roof)

    I got some amazing seeds & I don't know how I'm going to wait!

    I got some lovely giant beefsteak ones & yellow & White ones

    You could risk it, not unheard of to plant out toms this late in the year but its actually the temp differences between night and day that cause the problems with toms. Growth slows down and fruit starts splitting on the cold nights. But if you have a decent irrigation and feed system set up you might just nip in with a decent crop. Out of interest what isthe white variety called?
