Default Just starting to pick

Glacier: good flavor for an early tomato

Hungarian heart:Always reliable producer with very good flavor.

Burpees Porterhouseoorest germination of any seed I have ever grown, maybe10%. Almost flavorless.

Earls Faux. Absolutely outstanding taste.

Paul Robeson. First time grower of this one and am I glad I did. This is one of the best tasting tomatoes I have ever eaten.

Mike,

Do you have a picture or description of the Hungarian Heart? I am curious whether it is a true heart or more of a plum shaped.

I love Glacier as well, it is a great early tomato! Unfortunately not as widely grown as Stupice or Kimberly, but the taste is very well worth it.

Hi Mike - my first tomatoes have had great flavor:

Black Krim - always great but plant is looking alittle ratty
usually a heavy producer

Jet Star - my main cropper and always tasty,

Big Beef - the plant is certainly big - 7 feet and growing
with a ton of flowers setting. Fruits are ok and not so big.
Lots BER on this one early on.

I am also growing Hungarian Heart - my fruits are really
heart shaped - just a few set, lost alot of flowers to the
heat and humidity. Not sure how big they will be and a little
slow in setting.

German Johnson - setting so-so. Tasty is quite good but I
was expecting sweeter.
Monster Cherokee Purples just beginning to turn. waiting on
druzba.

Tons of spider mites are taking a toll on all plants. Piegirl
