Will it do as well for everyone as well as it has done for me? It is close to perfect and
this years plants are identical to last season...same structure. on the same plants
I have a beefsteak shape and a near heart. I pick at full blush close to metallic stripes
but off the vine they get very black. They hold very well indoors for a good week and
darken to a rich brown/black. I like a heavy dark tomato that gives a few days opportunity to enjoy...
I'm guessing it is close but that decision is not mine.

With all my leaf mold issues this season I will not share seeds. Even though my micros
and dwarfs pulled through I am not comfortable passing that on. I will heat treat my
own saved seed next season and use 2019 as a trial for my issues...

High heat, drought, then wet, hot, horrible heat soggy weather, no cracking or splits....

It is the only tomato I have served 'nude' at my tomato tasting menu party last weekend.
Not even sea salt. Just a bit of basil and par-cel.
