Of course, the vast majority are cherries, but what the heck.
Here's the breakdown.

Cherokee Purple W 28
Cherokee Purple 29
Kellogg's Breakfast W 27
Kellogg's Breakfast 30
Lemon Boy 2
Yellow Pear 34
Momotaro 41
Super Sweet 100 825
Black Prince 62
Aunt Ginny's Purple 20
Beefmaster 15
1113

Cherokee Purple and Kellogg's Breakfast have two entries because there are
two of each. The W is on the west side of the garden.

Lemon Boy and Yellow pear are a month behind the others.

Awesome. My Kellogg's Breakfast is looking like it'll outdo Beefmaster F1, too.

I'm kind of suprised that Yellow Pear isn't further ahead!

I’m impressed that you could keep up with the count. I tried a log of numbers and weights, but gave up. The cherries and grapes alone are a little overwhelming to count. Nice job!

Shule - my KB is having a banner year too. Cherokee Purple has been disappointing. Black Prince (new this year) is now on my annual list.

For the 1st time ever my KB produced zero tomatoes. Yes that's right zilch nada nothing. KB and KBX would be the more prolific ones in my garden every year. So much that I decided this year I only needed 1 plant :(
Grew Black Prince and Krim for the first time. Krim will be returning next year.

Can't compete with 1000 tomatoes, but we canned about 100 lbs. :D
