Comments:

2023 Did very well for me this year, although started getting long in the tooth by about mid-August. It was hot and smoky, and that seemed to affect all the tomatoes. Grew in a 3 gal pot this year and seemed to do pretty all right with the restricted root space. About 650 g/plant (1lb 1 oz). Average fruit rate about 11g.
2015 Stout bushy plant, grows wider than it is tall (approx 1.5 ft wide by 8-12 inches tall). Very sturdy, good production. Bounced back from burning, although further heat seemed to delay production. Grew well in a 5 gal pot.
