Default Stellar: Final Thoughts

This is one producing tomato for a very tidy plant that is about 4 ft tall and maybe 3 ft wide. I have picked over 60 tomatoes thus far, and determinate or not, this one will be producing when killed by cold weather. Twenty-five lbs thus far is a conservative estimate. It is a machine! Now, the "but" -- it doesn't have the sweetness I'd prefer, and that may be just the lack of leaf area to support all those tomatoes. For processing, this would be a good choice, I think. I may not grow it next season because it produces too many tomatoes!

So I'm still searching for that "perfect tomato." It would be PL, disease-resistant, a tidy semi-determinate or compact indeterminate, crack and split resistant, attractive, and that great sweet-tart taste. Maybe you know the one I'm still looking for?
