Tuk, I'm growing Rutgers here for the first time and I really like it. They seem a bit sour unless fully ripened, and I'll bet anything they cook up well. Lots of tomatoes from only one plant. I'm also trying another determinate (and one of the parents of Rutgers), Marglobe. Delicious, buta very low producer. One I grew a year or two ago, Stupice, was just mediocre off the vine. But super prolific, and cooked--outstanding. Also very, very early. Let me know how you like Ashleigh. I have a friend back east who loves that one. I'll be curious how it does here. I've been curious also about Steak Sandwich. Might give that one a try next year. I'm giving up on Burpee's Brandy Boy. Taste is excellent, but production is seriously low and it's been very prone to BER this season. I'm not a snob re: heirloom/OP/hybrid. I just want lots of great tasting summer tomatoes!!
