Donskoi

Has anyone else had much experience with the heart variety called Donskoi? I am growing it for the first time this year and to me it is the best tasting of all the hearts I have tried; but it is rather stingy with production for me. I picked one off my second plant yesterday that wieghed in at 30.7 ounces; absolutely dwarfing every other tomato so far. The largest off my first plant, which only produced 3 fruits before fusarium got it, was 21 ounces. The tomatoes are huge and delicious but few and far between. I guess I'll keep growing it because of the flavor and the hope that one day I will have a plant that will pump out the tomatoes like Kosovo does.
