This is my first year to grow heirlooms from seed. For size, production, and taste; I'm growing Cuostralee, Mortgage Lifter, Kelloggs Breakfast, Prudens Purple and Brandywine Sudduth. I have high expectations for those. I have planted some Sweet Carneros Pink, Brown and Black Boar, and Berkley Tie Dye hopefully for taste and production. I will also be growing Black from Tula and JD's special C Tx for the same reason as well as Black Krim and Cherokee Purple. I selected all of these after a lot of research and hoped to not find any of those on this list of heirlooms not to grow. I think I am safe so far.

I did germinate, plant, and grow the following heirlooms which many people told me are a waste of time and space for various reasons. Roma (I've never intentionally grown a determinate tomato), Stupice (opinions varied from a total waste of time to one of their favorites), and Climbing Trip-L Crop (I just want to see what it will do and if it is as bad as people say)
