I was stunned to find these fairly big greenies on my Oaxacan Jewel plant! This is a new-to-me early variety :).

You should be very happy with that one. Could be over a pound. That was one of my favorite slicers the year that I grew it.

That is a beautiful cluster. I'm remembering now how much better the fruit looks when you grow them outdoors. They get the full pollination and that gorgously ruffly shape. 8-) In my greenhouse they are often smaller and sometimes even seedless. The plant will make fruit in all conditions. :)

Wow, fruit already in Ontario?! Remarkable! I've just got first flowers this week.
Too many tomatoes, not enough time.

Miss Tee, I don't know whereabouts you are, but we had quite a heatwave for several days which forced the tomatoes to set fruit early this year. I'm very happy about that :).

One of the Oaxacan Jewel tomatoes blushed today. There's rain in the forecast, so I picked it. Can't wait to taste it......
