Good to see a fellow Momotaro enthusiast in my neck of the woods!
I’ve been growing the Gold and the ’93 for several years now & they’ve been great for me. Main thing I like about them is the excellent nematode resistance, but they’re also superior in just about every other way to any other yellow/gold slicer I’ve ever grown. Have gotten a lot of positive comments on the taste, from people who normally don’t care much for that category of tomato.
The people I’ve given plants to (not just random folks or newbies, because for plants from such pricey seed you have to be a favored “customer” 🤣) have been very pleased with them as well.
They’ve taken the place of Lemon Boy for me, which was always my bulletproof yellow slicer…..Momotaro Gold is similarly tough (maybe even sturdier) *and actually* tastes good. Plus it barely cracks, and sets fruit pretty well in high temps; I can’t really ask for anything more.

Nice from zone 6B. All I get to be excited about is that my hard neck garlic tops are finally poking out of the mulch.
