tomato varieties

-- [ From: nonayobusiness * EMC.Ver #2.3 ] --

Concerning the split shoulders, I grew Sweet Million  cherry tomatoes  this
year, and had maybe a  half dozen  with splits across the bottom, directly
attributable to my not watering them for a while,, and then watering.  The
other million or so fruits were perfect.  These always are great no matter
what mother nature dishes out for us.   The other varieties we grew were
some sort of "Boy" varieties, but I can't remember what they were.  They
were slow to ripen because it was so cool this summer, but there were  no
split  shoulders.  I had 3 fruits with blossom end rot, but everything else
was fine.  The Sweet Million started ripening abut a month before the "Big 
Boys."  That is the one variety  we always grow, because it promises us
that we will have some sort of tomatoes, no  matter what.  I buy a pack
from Pinetree Seeds, and it lasts us a couple of years.   I grow plants for
us and for my mom (neither of us have very big gardens).  Lauren, z6
