Buzau 22 was received as part of the MMMM swap in 2022: l just could not justify growing everything so some had to wait.

This somewhat exceeds the advertised production by about 30%, and I'm guessing these will have "average" flavor. When they get this color, I bring them in lest the blasted squirrels get them. This variety will certainly fill fruit jars for winter joy, however.

I have only experienced this kind of production from a few indeterminates.
Amazing.

Later than ever, really late, but I am buried in tomatoes, finally. Zone 6A SE Michigan. Lots of rain, colder nights, not a lot of really hot days. I got no clue why everyone's tomatoes are so late. My wife suggested that those many weeks of extreme haze from the Canadian wildfires may have caused it.

As usual, the biggest producer (plus big tomatoes) is Dr. Wyche's Yellow. Planted 9 of them, 4 are crosses of some sort, the 5 that appear to be the Dr are pumping out tomatoes. Picked 2 plus bushels with much more coming. 21 quarts of Dr. Wyche's Yellow juice so far once the batch in the pressure cooker is done, in about 10 mins!

The ground is so saturated I can't stake these plants up, they just fall over. Crazy year!

Hello Vanaplaca

I grow Historical Golden Bantam Corn from Native Americans. They grow around 10 -12 feet, which I use around Vegetables for Years. Last Year they helped save many crops of my Heirloom Tomatoes from the Heat.

I never put them with my Heirloom Tomato Crops, until last year. I had so many Corn Plants; that I decided to place them near some of my Heirloom tomato plants. I did not even think we were going through Severe Climate Changes like we suffered last year: showing a true Blessing from God himself.
My Heirloom Tomatoes grow over 16 feet. So that was a Miracle. For the Tomato Plants that did not have this "Native Secret Shade", I had to work hard to save half the Crops. But, I learned a Great Lesson. Maybe the Native Americans who taught me this garden secret about the Corn wanted to use different sections around all Plants, Amen!!
