Thanks for that MrBig46.

I grew them in the ground for a couple of years, and had pretty good luck, but the plants wilted pretty badly mid/late season and it was a race to get the tomatoes ripe. The flavor was pretty good, but I mainly grew them for drying, and we dried them in a dehydrator and used them during the winter. I never tried them in a container.

Now my situation has changed and I grow mostly in containers, but have found better tasting tomatoes for drying. Black Cherry for one. The sugar and tomato flavor really pops in the dried ones I'm eating now from last year.
