Yes it did, mmmm. I can still remember the taste...I really liked that Buckeye yellow also!

I didn't give the wrong person credit did I?

Thomas,

I think a couple of people brought TYW so you could have tasted it more than once.

To my recollection the only person that brought Buckeye Yellow was Gary from Louisville. He got it from his buddy that passed away.

Thomas,
Not if you got TYW off my table. :-)

Taste wise for me TYW ranks up there with Lillian's Yellow and etc., and it was very productive. For sure, worth growing again.

Thats really cool to hear Earl - a really great compliment coming from a seasoned tomato taster ~ Thanks !

Mantis,

Judging by the leaf type Grub got - looks like you're on track for a "yellow" tomato - not sure if ya heard - but I got a "red" one this year - def. looking forward to your results ...

~ Tom

Grubs pic - (leaf type looks spot on):

Out of the whole bunch, it looked ot me like the "TX HEAT" changed the color of Suzes TYW - but yeah - everything seems to be consistent so far ~
