Top 3 Tomato Producers - Page 5

I am picking over a gallon from my Carbon Copy plants (3) two or three times
per week. The temps have been in mid to high 90s for a while now. The plants are 12 or 15 feet tall (long) and look terrible but they continue to produce great
tasting tomatoes. I have sprayed three different times with the bleach solution to keep disease at bay. Carbon Copy, Carbon , Royal Hillbilly, and Lumpy Red are all I have left that are still producing good amounts of fruit. Our weather should change to mid 80s next week and if I can keep them alive they will continue till frost about Nov 1st. For such a strange weather year I have done surprisingly well.

Agree KC146 was really prolific for me this year as was Mozark. The most prolific non cherry plant I have ever grown is Hanky Red. I have never seen a plant set so many tomatoes!
