| My tomatoes were a little bigger than described here, about 10 ounces average. Had decent yield, but vines were only average vigour, and flavor was disappointing to me. Foliage was not as heavy as some. There are several varieties I would choose instead. This was grown in Sherman county Nebraska, in soil that was not as good as in eastern Nebraska deep loam. Other varities outperformed in that location though. |
