I dropped a bunch of my 'maters off at my dad's house on Saturday while I visited him. I called today for his report on the flavor of the different varieties, and he pretty much agrees with me that Chesapeake, though huge, is on the bland side compared to the others. He said the Stupices were very good, and he really liked the Black Krim. I haven't tried Black Krim yet this year, but I'm a fan of black tomatoes, too, so I'll probably agree with Dad. And, of course, he gobbled down all the Sungolds as soon as I gave them to him.

I picked my first Lemon Boy today, but haven't tried it yet.

I told you that my Chesapeakes and Hungarian Hearts are really large (for me) this year. I know they're not anywhere close to the 3-lb monsters that have won for Largest Tomato at MAGTAG, but I harvested a 1.91 lb HH and a 1.85 Chesapeake today.
