I have notice that several tomatoes taste different as the season progresses. The most noticeable have been the larger paste tomatoes(opalka(OP) and Pompeii(F1)) Both were fairly tasteless at the beginning of the season and only useful for cooking, but were quite tasty later in the season. Not sure if it is temperature, as we often don't really have spring here and usually jump quickly to highs in the 80's.
