My Moravsky Div's are ready to plant but the new early I'm most impressed with is Red Siberian. All three are the biggest, stockiest plants of all my tomatoes.

I'll be darned. I found one RL BB from that new seed stock. The rest are PL! I just noticed it. I wonder how different in flavor it will be? So thats two seed sources, one all RL, one all PL but one is RL. Gee, three more plants to grow out. I'm up to my beak in plants.

My tomato plant grown from Burpees supposed BB seeds is over six feet tall now. The tomatoes are small, about 1 3/4 in diameter. The flavor is mild and slightly sweet. Here are some pics.
There aren't many ripe tomatoes on the plant since we are tomato starved in Wisconsin and they are gobbled up the minute they are red.

Barkeater, I'm curious if you find Red Siberian early for you. I have it growing alongside Moravsky Div and MD was uber-early - I've eaten half a dozen so far - but I still don't have the hint of blush on my Red Siberian. It is a mammoth plant, very dark green leaves, and set it's first fruit pretty early, but there it sat and sat, green as anything. (Then a squirrel took it this week while it was still green, but the next one up is also still green.)
