favorite midseason less-juicy slicer?

habitat_gardener · September 23, 2015

Lately, my tomato sandwiches have been so juicy that, after I eat the sandwich, I end up with a whole plateful of juice, maybe a quarter cup or so! I don't recall this happening to quite this extent in previous years. (Maybe I'm overloading my sandwiches with thick tomato slices? Or the tomatoes are too big for my slices of homemade sourdough rye?) The latest "offender"

was a huge Weisnicht's Ukrainian.

My standard tomato has been Pruden's Purple for the past few years, but this year my yield has been zero (2 plants in 2 different gardens!).

So I'm looking for opinions about some less-juicy, midseason, probably medium-size, balanced (but on the sweet side) tomatoes to try.
