Re: ((In)) Determinate Tomato Spacing

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I'm giving the square foot approach a shot this year with (3) 4x4 
raised beds. (Yes, I know I'm a bit behind in getting plants in the 
ground :).

Local nursery has these starter plants to choose from:
Early Girl, Big Beef, Beef Steak, Big Boy and Better Boy

If my research serves me, these are all indeterminates, correct?

Was thinking of Early Girls and Big Boys. What do others recommend?

I look forward to any and all replies.

Thanks.

Steve
