I’m a newbie with very limited space (one 8×4 raised bed and a plethora of grow bags) so my selection is pretty basic. Cherokee purple, black krim, sungold, and Supersweet100s. I’m thinking about starting some patio choice seeds because I don’t know when to stop lol.

I’m going heavy on San Marzano this year. Also plan on trying a string trellis system for the first time.

I’m a newbie so I’m growing: Lemon Boy, Black Krim, Brandywine (not sure which one), German Queen, Sungold, Green Zebra, San Marzano, Roma, Beefsteak heirloom (Bonnie), Cherokee Purple, Kellogg Breakfast and Arkansas Traveller.

I think this is the first year I don’t have any tomatoes going I haven’t grown before, now that I think about it.
Also pickling cukes, wax beans and green beans, chinese fat chili peppers of unknown species I grew from dried asian market peppers, yellow tomatillos, garlic, red bunching onion, radishes, and carrots. Lots of flowers and herbs this year too. And whatever else gets thrown out there impulsively lol, my seed ~~hoard~~ erm, collection has gotten a little out of control.

Planted the same seeds I grew last year:
Blondkopfchen (yellow currant) – massive producer last year and my kids love them
Sweet Apertif (Cherry) – not great producer but super sweet
Pink Bumblebee (cherry) – decent producer, tasty
Tim’s Black ruffles – small but delicious
Anais Noir – delicious
Carbon
Black Krim
Solar Flare (not my favorites honestly but they actually produce a decent amount)
Volunteers that are either White Currants or Black Cherry tomatoes.

Yellow Boy were the first to produce (new for me and love the taste), then Cherokee Purple (scrumptious). No diseases so far, except for BER on the SMs. The flood of ripe fruit should begin soon and the canning equipment is ready to go.
