When making a toasted tomato sandwich, you slice the mater in 1/2 and put the toast in the middle.

That is a fine looking tomato. We have a lot of beefsteak tomatoes in the 1 1/2 to 1 3/4lb size that we have been harvesting over the past week. We even have a donut that would put Timmies to shame.

Bruce for the size there were not a lot of seeds probably around 60 if that. It was all pulp.

I have another coming at 1.5 at the most. I will dry the seeds.

 

Yeasterday we Jarred 15 bushels, close to 300 jars.

Often you will not get that many seeds from the monster tomatoes. How big was the root core?

 

I remember the days of bottling sugo back in the day. We'd pick 100 bushels, as a group, on the Saturday. Then Sunday was spent blanching, grinding and bottling. By 4 in the afternoon, all was done, and the men were more than a little ubriaco.

Haven't seen it Bruce but the plant was small main stem about the thickness of a finger, only produced the one and a few flowers.

I planted the seeds but it was cold in the garage and the plants I did get wern't very big my the end of May.

 

yes there tends ro be a little bit of drinking when tomato day comes around!
