The yield on my three Cherokees is out of control. Truly a magnificent heirloom. No disease and no complaints.
Also scored the largest tomato of the season. Weighing in at 1 lb and 10 oz!
Also curious if anyone knows the other tomatoes next to it? I got mixed up with my seeds and growing some other random tomato, thinking it was cherry. Third pic.

Very nice. Congrats and enjoy!
looks like pineapple
I’m sincerely glad it did well for you. It’s not a prolific producer for me (NE Texas.) Where are you growing these? How many tomatoes have you gotten from each plant?
It looks like my Black Krim. Lotsa huge tomatoes.
Not mine but I’m happy for you 🥲
It’s my favourite too- here in the UK grown in a greenhouse. Just outstanding smokey flavor/flavour (lol) for a tomato. Will be doing the pepsi challenge with Black Krim next year. I only got up to a 1 Ib. But the yield on each plant is also fantastic. Not sure about whether these were originally grown by the Cherokees, but it’s a good story.
There is a Cherokee tomato? Now I know what I’m getting for next year!
