I love to read people's year-end reviews; thanks for posting yours. Did you have any guesses about which varieties your two "NOT" varieties actually were?

I've only grown two of the varieties you mentioned. Hillbilly was low production for me, and Kellogg's Breakfast was average production. Seems like in my garden the varieties with very large tomatoes generally don't produce as much total poundage as the 10-12oz varieties, which seems to be the sweet spot.

We had a very good year here. I didn't track production, but I know that my living room floor and cabinets were covered with large catering trays full of tomatoes from late July until three days ago. I tried a lot of new varieties this year and didn't like the flavor of some of them, but I certainly couldn't complain about the quantity. Into the sauce pot they went, and the flavor issues disappeared!
