Where did Carolyn get all her seeds, anyway?
Welcome to the Friendliest Gardening Forum, Let's grow together!!!

Looking at the pics, I'm assuming that those are red varieties. And, what I see is a lot of yellow shoulders. In my garden, nearly all tomatoes that get those dreaded yellow shoulders have disappointing flavor. I'm wondering if you got to taste any without the yellowing?FarmerShawn wrote: ↑Tue Mar 22, 2022 8:13 am My apologies for being slow to respond here, and for not giving more info on the small-fruited varieties Lotte is growing. Some of them are determinate, which I almost never grow. All were quite productive of nice looking small tomatoes. Unfortunately, all of them were sadly lacking in flavor in my garden. Maybe they will be better grown in another's garden. I suspect they might be useful as breeding stock, because of their vigor and productivity, but I don't do that. I just grow out accidental crosses.
Anyway, that was my impression.
