Hi Mark,

I wanted to get your opinion on my Mat-Su Express plant this year. For the record, it is one of, if not the healthiest plants in the garden, very dense big PL and extremely productive.

I only grew one from Plant 11 seed.

The flavor is quite good, but the tomatoes are often look a bit odd on the inside, with a large gap between the sides and the gel. You can see it in the picture below, 1 is like that, the other 2 are not (all from the same plant). Ironically enough, the ones that have that that gap have noticably better flavor. My question is--is that the intended result for Mat-Su Express and if I should save seed from this plant--as I want to ensure any saved seed is correct and as intended. If not, I will source some new seed as I had germination issues and used up all my Plant 11 seed. Or if you suggest, I can try the Plant 41 (I'll need to check that is correct but I'm pretty sure) seed next year.

Thanks for sharing again!
