This three big Purple Dog Creek tomatoes were picked 2 days ago. They are 2 pounds and 12.3 ounces in total.
The second picture was of today's harvest with the biggest one in the third picture (16.7 oz). It should be called Purple Horse Creak.:yes::lol:

Marlowe Charleston is one of the tastiest tomato and it keeps on giving this big juicy maters.

Omar’s Lebanese. This was a surprise, the first to ripen this year. The biggest in this group was 15.2 ounces.
This year is very strange, at the beginning of the season tomatoes were very tasty, as the season progresses they usually improve the taste. Not this year, maybe it was due to all the diseases.

Old Time purple, 13.2 ounces. It started setting fruits a bit late but given few so far and has few more still green, all in a close to a pound range.

Still looking awesome, Ella. Congrats!

I have sprayed my tomatoes (thinking it is fungus), not too consistently but still. Well, as previously complained about bugs, I do believe that small green LEAFHOPPER (about 3 mm long) is my biggest problem. Last year and this year there are so many of them. As I looked them up, wow, they make such a huge damage to leafs of the plants that looks just like a septoria would. I am going to spray with my old home remedy baking powder, dish detergent, and Epsom salt. I helps with fungus and deter bugs too.

Those tomatoes are still looking good Ella...really nice sized varieties you have growing there.

There are not too many green once left on the plants, they appear to be stunned. It can be so many things.
I sprayed with bleach yesterday to fight diseases. I asked Bills if it helps with bugs and the answer was "unfortunately NOT". Now I am spraying to deter bugs. There is more than a month left is this season, I am trying to save my plants and have few more tomatoes set and ripen.:evil:

Depp's Pink Firefly. Production is so so. Taste ok, noting special. It may be that kind of year, not all the tomatoes holding their taste consistently well. Depp's Pink Firefly is late tomato and probably likes more sun, warmer temperatures.

All those tomatoes look yummy! How many total plants did you start with?? How much total production do you think you had? I am jealous LOL

My Depp's Pink Firefly is also shy producing fruits. I have very few tomatoes set on the plants, and they are still small - look like it'll be September harvest.

I thought we had plenty of sunshine and warmth this year so far!
