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.

Hello Edweather,
I grew tomato Principe Borghese last year for the first time. I am fascinated by its use as Piennolo. The flavour of PB wasn´t best (for me). I shall endeavour to improve its flavour by addition of wooden ash (K, Ca and lift pH). I want to contract watering too.
