[QUOTE=clkeiper;725607]PPO... no matter how ripe it was it didn't taste like anything.[/QUOTE]



If you chew one long enough, not recommended, you can taste the skin.

Folks, what's wrong with your palate or conditions. Over here, PPO was a thundering success, everyone who tasted it was sold out, including my mom and neighbors...

Here, it could be my conditions. :?!?:



The majority of cherry, red, and orange tomatoes are bland tasting, coming from my garden. Pinks, hearts (of any color), blacks, greens, etc...are usually full flavored, even though I might despise the flavor (of most black and green tomatoes).


The pH of my garden soil is likely about 5.5, which possibly could be a contributing factor.

My soil is from a bag and I grow all tomatoes in containers... with amendments and natural ferts every variety [I]usually[/I] has flavor - except last summer, when the heat wave really messed up the process :evil:
Hopefully, this season will be back to normal again, no hot/cold games!
