Modifying tomato's taste.

dcarch · August 7, 2007

I think there has been discussions regarding if you can improve the tastes of tomatoes. I don't remember what was the conclusion.

I am growing four LGSs this year. Two in highly composted soil, and two in four gallon pots with top soil purchased from HD by mistake ( I was going to get cow fertilizer).

Well, very interesting find.

The two plants in ground produced huge crops of tomatoes and the two in pots produced only a few, but the taste of the potted ones are very different and intense comparing to the ones from ground. Fruits are all about the same size and color.

Would this be a proof that you can actually modify tomatoes' tastes by using differnet growing media/fertilizer?
