Man, am i jealous of you all. I didn't plant any tomatoes this year, but a volunteer Striped Stuffer Tomato has come up and is growing huge. Just started putting out fruit. Pretty fruit but not the best tasting, and doesn't stand up to long baking.

Sunfish,

Sweet Million are one of my favorites! Very Good and produces through the heat when others shut down.

San Marzanos are coming along nicely even with the late start. Pruned to a single stem and tied to 8 foot stakes they are now over 4 feet tall with over 20 fruits on each plant and no signs of disease!

Do you mean Green Giant? I'm growing it as well as Cherokee Green and Malakhitovaya Shkatulka. They're all pretty good and productive. I'll probably only grow one next year and haven't decided yet which one that will be.

No this is Giant Green. I could call it the Jolly Green Giant and sell seed though.

Can you find me somewhere that lists that variety? This database is the most extensive (nearly 4,000 varieties) and doesn't list Giant Green: Category:Tomato Variety List - Tatiana's TOMATOBase

So far, I'd say our top 3 for flavor are Lime Green Salad, Sungold, and Snow White.
