It's a Pineapple. The taste was mild, a little tropical like sweet pineapple, very little acidity, very juicy, nice texture with no mealyness. Used part of it on BLTs. The plant is about 8 feet tall and pruned to a single stem. It's loaded with big fruit!

Sounds interesting. I'll try it this weekend with an organic lard crust, Beechers Flagship Cheddar and apple smoked bacon.

And when they grow over your 8 foot stakes just tie them to your bananas!

Nice! Now bananas have at least two uses: stakes for tomatoes and stakes for Passion fruit, right Tony?

Yes and also the bananas make good compost

We pulled ours out already. Had frost last Sunday and tomatoes were getting pretty funky with cool wet weather.

Nice Pineapple tomato up there! I love seeing more people growing heirloom types. I LOVE pineapple tomatoes. Absolutely delicious with a true pineapple like flavor. I've got some tomatoes growing in my room right now, but I'm afraid some newly hatched slugs are eating at their roots because for no other known reason, they're wilting and slowly dying. Sigh, the risks of bringing potted tomatoes in from the greenhouse.

Dalmatiansoap · 01-13-2013, 10:42 AM

Is this a sowing time already? Whan will U guys start yours?

Illia · 01-13-2013, 09:24 PM

I've got cool summers, a short season, and a greenhouse because of the latter two - So I usually start in February, might in January this year if I'm lucky. Gives a great head-start and although the greenhouse isn't heated, freezing is never hard enough from March forward to really worry about 'maters being in the greenhouse that early. I'll likely move them early April though. We'll see how the weather goes.

Special thanks to Bob!

I almost forgot. But I started yesterday. Found a sweet hybrid cherry tomato this year so I'll try that out.

I have 48 Celebrity seedlings I'm planting out this week.
