2023 This was one of my best producers this year! It was later than I expected at 84 days, although I think that may have been due to heat/smoke. Very smooth, round red fruit. Nice classic tomato flavour, really good for fresh eating. I grew one in a 5 gal pot (did great) and another in a 3 gal (did terribly), so definitely needs minimum 5 gal to grow effectively. Plant was about 2.5ft tall, averaged about 2.1 kg/plant (4 lb 13 oz).
