...and we can finally pick some tomatoes!

Since my last post, I got to taste a few varieties:
Taxi, ISPL, LLK, JF, PR and CV

I have to say that the first batch was grainy/mealy and bland. It was very disappointing. It could be because of the cold wet summer we had. This was particularly true with Cosmonaut Volko, Paul Robeson and Jaune Flammee.

Subsequently picked fruit for ISPL was just tart, LLK tart with a hint of smokiness and PR not sure yet!

I started to suspect that I lost my taste palette, that is until I tasted my first cherokee lime yesterday, a tangy but fruity lemony flavor that everyone adored in the family

First Tomatoes On Aug-12 - Cukes + LLK and ISPL

Notice the mealy texture of the first ISPL
