Cherokee P or Big Beef

bigpinks · June 15, 2017

Got several of each about 4ft tall set out Apr 30. Never actually thought about it before to keep track but both are sure fire cultivars for setting fruit. I have BB almost baseball size and CP almost that big in first cluster and walnut size above in the second. Love these two a lot but am a yellow/ed or big pink first kind of guy. I also raise Orange Slice for their meatiness...not necessarily for taste. But they too really set tomatoes for me in my mostly clay soil. Some maybe 18 ounces. We had a good rain today and my garden is too wet to work but not muddy so I have to be contented to walk around it and look...peppers, squash, 90 tomatoes, egg plant and a little corn. 88degrees here today and sunny as I type.
