Calling Tucson/Southern Arizona Gardeners

AZRuss · June 12, 2011

I just tasted a ripe, warm-from-the-vine Jetsetter F1. Yes, it had BER, but it was a large tomato so I just cut the rotted part away. It was DELICIOUS!! Full, old-time tomato flavor, ever so slightly sweet. Nice surprise for an early-ish hybrid. Hope there will be a few later on without the BER problem. It's a good producer and it's supposed to be fairly heat tolerant. It's still setting and it's been around 95 degrees here for a few weeks now. Nights are still relatively cool (69-75) though. That might be it.
