David's Pinck is medium size tomato. I loved the taste last year, it died to soon last season. So far it is healthy and has some good size tomatoes. Hopefully will pick first one soon.

I am growing Kamo for the first time this year and I love it! The meat is much more dense than any other variety I have tried and they stay bitter free even when a little past their prime.

They are bitter free. I grew up always salting eggplants and letting them sit before cooking to get ride of bitterness, with this one there is no need. And yes, I agree, they are very meaty. The only downside is the skin is too thick.

Red Barn was picked a few days ago (10.9 ounces). Time to taste it. Ok, with or without salt it still has plenty acidity and not sweet at all. Not my type of tomato. If you like an acidic tomato, this one has a bite. Would be great on a sandwich or in salsa. Has plenty of juice to give. Nice looking too. Perfect shape, no cracks.

Claude Brown’s Y. Giant was pretty good. Not to sweet, not to acid but not bland at all. Can be eaten with or without salt. Very meaty. We used it on a sandwich. Every one liked it that way. I am going to put it on my 2015 list.

Picked 5.5 pounds of cucumbers.

Can you guess what animal is inside of this still green Cuostralee tomato that was found on the ground.

The Lithuanian Crested Pink has a nice flavor, and I think it's on the sweet side. My son, who does not like acidic tomatoes at all, felt it was the best tasting of the three we tried that day--Cherokee Chocolate and Amish paste being the other two. I was pulling out diseased leaves yesterday and found another LCP hiding near the base of one of my plants. That puppy weighed in at 24 ounces!! I've harvested about 5 or 6 of them so far, and the smallest one has been 12 ounces. The rest have been around a pound. They must like the spot I planted them in.
