The short list

JohnWayne · July 4, 2012

Druzba, Sioux and Thessaloniki are a few of the plants I plan to try next year. My Cherokee Purples are a while from producing a ripe fruit as yet but I've been buying a few from South Carolina along. Unless there is a big change in flavor from those to homegrown I won't be planting them again. Just to watered down in flavor.

I tried and failed at Florida weave this year. To much space between plants, poor choice of string etc. I hope to run cable overhead and drop string to the plants most of them are at the point of falling over now.

But that puts me in mind to try bush variety's next year. Something that won't need as much effort in staking but still has real tomato taste. I've never grown any of these so your input would be a big help.
Thanks
