At this point in my garden things are changing daily. It is a rapidly moving dynamic.
Everyday more fruits are set, they get much bigger and few have started getting ripes.
Because I have planted tightly ( One plant in 2ft by 2 1/2 ft square), I cannot see accurately what is going on, even though I keep pinching suckers and prune lower leaf branch stll some of them are huge. .
But I have the following clear leaders in the number of fruit set:

SFT
IS -PL
Stupice
Big Beef
Brown Heart
Ananas Noire
Super Sioux
Brandy Boy
Pruden's purple
Esterina F2
Juliett
Sungold
Big Rainbow
Mystery Black.

Those are about 1/2 of the varieties in my garden .
My goal is just pick 50% ( about 15 varieties ) for the next year and zap the rest. But it is too early to call.
