And "Polaris " a very large clear epidermis black, no green shoulders, phenomenal flavour, later than the other two but had to grow it. This one was 1 lb 11.5 oz and honestly the best tomato I have ever grown/ tasted.

Me 2, specially the black one. I am a sucker for black PL tomatoes. Is there a medicine for it? If there is, I refuse the treatment.

My they do look mighty fine!
First flower buds are appearing on my earliest F2's, yesterday and today! They're about four weeks old... sign of earliness is so exciting.
