A couple of fun facts:

My fruit is averaging two-thirds inch in diameter.

I'm experiencing a very small amount of cracking, the percentage is very low.

They are good and flavorful with a good amount of large-tomato taste. Not mild.

Another fun fact: the ripe ones keep on the counter for a good number of days. Maybe two weeks? I'll have to count.

Yes, the fruit keeps on the counter for a long time! We had a bowl of them out for 2 weeks and they were nice and snappy on a salad!!

Just a few more pics of Post Office Spoonful from my friend Mike- he moved recently from this property so the new owners will likely have several thousand volunteers come next spring . This is one plant, which has covered a whole fence!

Whoever moves in can pick a passel of tiny tomatoes!

Thanks for the update, Darin, and be sure to thank Mike!

Growing post office this year for the first time. Did any of you grow them in containers? I have a big container I was thinking of. I think its about 20/25 gallons.
