Cool. Are OGL and YGL F1 hybrids? Are they indeterminate?

Thanks for the offer. I'm just curious, for the time being.

[mention]Shule[/mention], I assume that OGL, YGL and LAY are all F1 hybrids of parentage unknown to me. Yes they are indeterminate, easily getting to 6 feet tall unpruned here when I have grown them in an average year. If memory serves me correctly, the OGL plant that I had initially had a rugose leaf appearance up until it was about 15 to 18 inches tall before growing with a more regular leaf appearance thereafter. Perhaps an indication of a dwarf parent in it background somewhere? Who knows.

Glacier tomato for the 1st time this year.
Some sites day determinate,others say semi-determinate.
One tomato looks like a mutant, so I an skeptical.
I may do a grip and rip on the plant if it doesn't perform well.
Store bought plant.

New to me-
Roma from Southern Seeds
Hungarian Italian paste
Black Beaty
I’m amazed at how incredibly productive and robust these three are and pleasantly surprised at Black Beauty’s taste. I grew Indigo cherry one year which I found insipid but this tomato is very tasty and seems incredibly hardy.
The two paste tomatoes I was just saying yesterday that I didn’t know tomatoes could produce so much! I’m getting plenty to can for a change.
