I will definitely give them all a try.
Not sure how long it will take for these to
become ripe. I think all the plants have fruit
setting on them now.

These are two weeks old, so will update again soon.

I used a bag of each mixed together. That works
out to a 4:3 ratio of Happy Frog to Ocean Forest.
If these are currently released micros, and not project micros, then you may be fine in those pots. Many of the currently existing micros do stay rather small. I had no issues with Red Robin in those last year.
and Bunny Hop Seeds (Heritage Seeds).
Here are a few pics from two weeks ago. Plants have grown a
little since then, and have lots of flowers and small fruits on them:

They did get to large to tend conveniently in the roller box.
You can see their new home the background of this pic of
the ‘Lukoshko’ and the ‘Yellow Olle’:

Growing in #1 nursery pots
First try at growing micro tomatoes.
I hope the #1 nursery pots are, in fact,
appropriate. I figured with plants 12”
tall, they would be okay. I planted these
in Fox Farms pottting soil amended with
blood meal, fish meal, bone meal, alfalfa
meal and mykos.
In a box on wheels for ease of moving them
around easily on the deck.
