| Positive | satkins | On Oct 11, 2010, satkins from (Zone 6a) wrote: Slow to get going, but still ripening in mid october in salt lake city. I have had a lot of variation in size from golf ball to baseball or slightly larger. Beautiful when sliced -yellow and red mosaic, but do tend to have cracks and blemishes but I used only natural fertilizer and no pesticides. Sweet and delicious -will definitely plant again. |

Plants are very tall (about 9 feet) and definitely not resistant to bacterial spot. Tomatoes were prone to cracking but that could have been from foliage loss from spot. All that said, I will absolutely grow this again from the seed I saved because the tomatoes are huge, fragrant, and delicious |
| Positive | dvrmte | On May 6, 2006, dvrmte from Pelzer, SC wrote: have grown this one for about 15 years in zone 7 of south carolina. huge tomatoes that are very tasty. this seed came from relatives in piedmont region of north carolina. it has been in this family for a long time as their descendants are from germany that migrated in the 1700's. it is not disease resistant at all and rarely lives until frost. |
