    • Indeed, I've been growing it for a couple years now I grew it right next to Cherokee Purple though, and I really can't tell the difference between them. They taste like, and look like the same tomato. So when I harvest, they just get mixed up and I don't know what is what.

    • I tried both of these last summer and neither of them produced well. My cherokees produced nothing but fused blossoms. The mortgage lifter didn't put on many blossoms at all. The bugs got the few tomatoes that it was actually able to set. I would say maybe I did something wrong but I grew these plants under the same exact conditions as my other 25 tomato varieties that did well. 🤷‍♀️

I came across a couple websites and I wondered if you’ve ever ordered from them. Bounty Hunter Seeds or Tomatofest ?

A gentle, modest tomato called "Peach Blow Sutton" is dear to me because it tolerated terrible growing conditions to provide lovely fruit for me, and because green ones sat on my counter and slowly ripened 'way into autumn, gifting me with treats that I didn't deserve. Yes, its skin looks oddly peachy.

Black Russian is full of umami wonderfulness and Raf is a Spanish heirloom that I used to make my first ever tomato sandwich Jess style and it was amazing. Roma is a good all round Italian style plum that freezes well whole and that I am still using for sauces. I am trying LOTS more of unusual types this year so hopefully my must grow list will be expanding :-)

  • Was glad to see you mention a white cherry tomato. For another low acid suggestion, try the Great White from Johnny's Selected seeds. It's an organic, open pollinated heirloom variety. The yellows, oranges and white varieties are thinner skinned and lower in acid, so do watch for cracking and bird damage. Thanks so much for your list of "faves".

  • Jess I would love it if you did a best of series. Maybe one about beans, brassicas/greens, root veggies, maybe even flowers? I really enjoyed this detailed video.

  • Last Summer I grew Indigo Apple from Baker Creek. They were delicious! Smaller than the big slicers you like growing. But they are beautiful with purple shoulders fading to red and very healthy long lasting plants.

  • My favorites are Mortgage Lifter, Wild Cherry and Opalka. Olpaka is a paste tomato and the skin peels off super easy when you cut it open. Makes amazing salsa!

  • I have grown Juliet tomatoes for the last couple of years. I’m in north central Texas and they do well and produce a lot. I haven’t grown them from seed, but buy starts at our local feed store.

  • Hi, Last year was the first year I tried heirloom varieties because you were so passionate about them. I had 34 varieties that I tried and grew 3 of each variety. My absolute favorite of all of them was called a Lucid Gem. They are a yellow tomato with purple shoulders. I believe they are a Brad Gates tomato, and grow to about 8-10 oz. so they weren't huge, but not small either. They were the first to ripen here in Massachusetts. The flavor is sweet and salty.. and I loved to make lettuce wraps with them. I gave some plants to friends and they have requested them again this year.
