I hear many people saying that (first tomatoes taste good because you haven't had any). I don't think that's really so true, they just are, and it's mostly because there is a lot of 'assimilates' stored in the plant before production starts and there's extra energy lying around, which then gets quickly redirected to the those early fruits. The first one or two are a little more mild, but imo the best tomatoes are usually on the first or second truss unless you nutrition is on point.
Your trusses are loaded, you'll be swimming in tomatoes soon.
