I ended up planting 38 tomato varieties. Yup, I sure did. I guess you could say that I never met a tomato seed or a tomato plant that I didn't like! LOL I was at my favorite feed and seed store and they had some tomato plants and I bought a few to plant in the garden for comparison purposes. I guess you could say that this year is one big experiment but hopefully I'll make some money, too. Next year I'll only plant 10 varieties out of the best producers this year and maybe trial a few others. I have 4 more varieties that I've just started from seed that aren't included in the following list...2 more stuffer tomatoes, 1 red tomato, and 1 white tomato. Some tomatoes I'm planting more of and some less of but I'm planting at least 5 tomato plants of each variety. Here's what's growing in the garden as far as tomatoes go:

1) Alicante
2) Amish Paste
3) Arkansas Traveler
4) Better Boy
5) Big Beef
6) Big Boy
7) Pink Brandywine
8) Burbank Red Slicing
9) Celebrity
10) Cherokee Purple
11) Creole
12) Georgia Streak
13) German Johnson
14) Hawaiian Pineapple
15) Hillbilly
16) Homestead
17) Isis Candy
18) Juliet
19) Mortgage Lifter
20) Mr. Stripey
21) Omar's Lebanese
22) Park's Whopper
23) Pineapple
24) Purple Brandy
25) Red Pear
26) Riesentraube
27) Roma
28) Rutgers
29) Santa
30) Sioux
31) Striped Cavern
32) Stupice
33) Sungold
34) Tigerella
35) Tommy Toe
36) Yellow Pear
