My first beefsteak of the season - Page 2

Had BLT's again tonite. A second vorlon was used and quite a lot better than the water soaked one I ate this morning. My daughter brought over a Cherokee Purple, Vorlon won hands down on taste. The CP seeds I got from a neighbor, and I didn't think the ones I tasted from his garden were that great last year. I need to get some new CP seed and trashcan the ones I've got. From all I hear CP should be better than that.

Found the newer scale ( the wife found it, after asking me why I was using the dirty old one!) had to show the PBTD. What a beautiful and delicious piece of fruit!!!

Looks like I'll have to try that PBTD. My wife saw that and thought it looked pretty cool. I gave up on Kelloggs BK because of the low productivity. It was my best tasting tom.

Dr. Tom, try KBX. I haven't grown one yet, will next year. It is an accidental cross that showed up in a packet of seeds, was grown out and now stable. Supposed to be as good or better, with better production. And it is potato leaf.
