I got a bush Goliath tomato plant the end of july reduced price and noticed 2 of the green tomatoes are bosom shape instead of the usual globe shape.I wonder if the kids will be well endowed also from the saved seed. :?:
I took cuttings to see if they will grow with the green tomatoes attached.

This can also be under the thread of tomatoes that don't match their pictures.

I secured a Bush Goliath plant under similar marked down circumstances, sometime in June, to replace a Jardín del Gotch stalwart, Mountain Merit, which up-n-died on me.

The results, or complete lack thereof, were very disappointing.

The bosom only had 9 seeds.
If they don't pop in the spring I may have a crestfallen face.
The cuttings croaked on me.
I used the wrong potting soil.

The regular Goliath plant died on me months ago.
