My favorite tomatoes: Cherokee Purple, Black Crim, and Carbon. Your choices are all good tomatoes.
I was happy to see that I am growing almost all of the varieties you listed as your favorites... great minds
Pink girls is by far the best tomatoes I've grown and everybody around me say they are you best they ever had 🍅
My favorite slices: Mortgage Lifter, Gold Medal, Giant Belgian Pink, Aunt Rubies German Green and Cherokee Purple. I must say, this was quite a tasty video. I can't wait for my next Heirloom BLT.
Black Krim is a standard in our garden each season. Grew them the last few years, and saved the seeds. Recommend this variety.
Last year I had around 20 varieties. Best tasting were beefmaster,bigboy,pink brandywine,purple Cherokee,sweet 100. Large cherry. Yellow pear and jubilee are blah. Hybrids cranked entire grow season. Heirlooms were first to die.
Fantastic! That sounds incredible 👍
Nice video and sweet disposition : )
You got a new subscriber. Love your attitude! Showing us your 'ready' snowu garden....got me
Awesome! Thank you!
Trying Cherokee Purple this year. Indoor seedlings are doing great.
Great info! I'm growing some tiny tim, patio tomatoes!
I haven't grown Cherokee Purple, Pineapple or Sungold yet, but I TOTALLY agree with Brandywine, Black Krim and Green Zebra! Three of my all-time favourites. I would also add Aunt Rugby's German Green Giant to that list!
I don't can also just want delicious fresh veggies and tomatoes.Thank you for your picks
Some of my favorites... Kellogg Breakfast, Lemon Boy, Sun Gold and Sweet 100's
My best Tomato : Heirloom. Dinner plate. Sounds like equal to Brandywine
I love the purple Cherokees and better boys for flavor! Thanks for sharing!
So good! 😍 Thanks too for sharing your faves!
Thanks for your lovely list of tomatoes -- my personal favourite is Cherokee Purple but this year I had two new ones that were noteworthy: Muddy Mambo and Mary Robinson. Both were exquisitely delicious slicers and will be back in my garden next year. I get seedlings from an organic farm in Southern Ontario called Tree and Twig -- run by a woman with incredible knowledge of heirlooms who grows with love.
I just got my Green Zebra seeds, very excited! My favorites from last year were Black Prince and Orange Peruche cherry. My season is too short for classic Brandywine, so I'm trying one called Genuwine this year, an heirloom cross that grows faster but supposedly keeps the taste. Fingers crossed! I like to try a few new varieties each year as well.
Big beef are amazing as well
Last years winner was Champagne Bubbles, but this year I'm growing so many new ones,, I'm sure there will emerge a new favorite!!
Cherokee purple, the 42 days and Dixie golden are my favorite, thanks for the video
Great choices! 🍅👍
Cherokee purple and mortgage lifter for flavor. This year I am also growing a newish determinate variety called "summer sandwich tomato."
I only discovered Sun Gold tomatoes last year, and it became our favorite of all time.
Pink and red Brandywine are my favorites. Next is Black Krim.
There are a couple I have not grow yet but sound great.
I love all tomatoes pretty much...but I really Love the orange/yellow ones. Orange peach and Hillbilly have done well for me in zone 9a.
😍 Right!? Ya the orange/yellow ones are fantastic - I will look out for those two tomato varieties! I'm in zone 5, so tomato season is a ways off...but i still can't wait lol
I like Picus for my tomato sauce, it makes a nice fresh tasting tomato sauce, way yummier than sauce bought at a store! Picus are also great chopped into a Greek salad. So far I like Mountain Merit for a disease resistant slicer, I’m trialing one called Myrtle this year but they seem to lack vigour and are susceptible to BER. I need my tomatoes to have TSWV resistance!
I am growing a few of those this year actually.
Red Snapper, Sungold, and Black Krim.
I am also doing Bella Rosa, Celebrity, Supersweet 100, Chefs Choice Pink (supposed to be a producer with Brandywine flavor), and Florida 91.
I am aiming for production with flavor on a lot of those.
What's your thoughts on Ramo, sweet million, beefsteak?
The dark galaxy tomato from wild boar farms is my favorite!
Goose cresk best flavor.
I really like German Lunchbox this year.
Blight is a big issue around here, so I grow some tomatoes in large containers on our balcony. We love the 'Zuckertraube' type for that, as it is super prolific in a small area and of couse it tastes wonderful!
Good to know! I will check it out 👍
@@paulreid7370 thank you, I'll have a look at that.
Awesome! Thank you! I enjoyed your video!
Glad you enjoyed it! 🥰
Still learning the ropes with tomatoes in hot and humid Mississippi. I've been completely unsuccessful at getting the first Brandywine. I did try Cherokee Purple last year and the few we had were the best I've ever had. But last year was a bad weather year with temperatures hitting over 95 early in June. This year, with much cooler weather, my Cherokee Purple is loaded up and has some very large ones coming on. Trying Genuwine this year along with Chef's Choice Orange. Already picked two Early Girls this week - not the best tasting tomato, but so much more flavor than is available at the market.
Sun Sugar are my favorite cherry ish tomato. they are like the heirloom Sun Gold, and i think even slightly better.
Oooh now i have to try those! Every year my tomato garden gets more out of control lol 😂 #worthit
jesus, I've simply moused over the chapters and I'm seeing we are on the same page. oh and you've made effort in the edit. Can't wait to watch the video :)
I grew all but 2 of those I'm growing 20 varieties this year looking forward to trying Dr Wyche, Black Brandy wine, Bella rossa, Paul Robsen, Amana orange, chefs choice orange, Carmello, Black Krim, Mortgage lifter, sun sugar, Sun gold, sweeties, Rose, Delicious,Triple l crop, Cherokee purple, Pineapple, Rose de berne, Pink and yellow Brandywine, Rutgers and Pineapple ground cherries very excited love gardening.
Oh wow your garden is going to be so epic!!
@@HomefortheHarvest I grew 10 varieties last year and wanted to try more different varieties but I liked every one I grew last year and couldn't get myself to eliminate any LOL so 20 it is hahaha. I only grow one of each and sell the rest.
hi; loved the video and your enthusiasm. What zone are you in? I live in NW coastal WA near Canada and many varieties people list as flavorful don't do well - we don't have the summer heat or proper humidity - we get blight instead. I would get maybe two tomatoes all season (no greenhouse) for all that care. Any recommendations on shorter-season or abundantly-fruiting disease-resistant and blight-resistant tomatoes that actually taste like something better than store bought bland tomatoes? My favorite ever tomato is still beefsteak! I am a PA transplant and I have missed the lip-cracking flavor of beefsteak for 45 years! Love the heirlooms, but will try anything for robust flavor. So far I have tried all of these with lackluster taste or results: mortgage lifter, big beef, celebrity, cherokee purple (good, but so late to bear), sungold (good til they split), and a whole lot of Ukranian varieties which are supposed to be good for our cool-summer climate, none of which tasted even close to as good as beefsteak I keep trying! I want them purely for taste and for eating/slicing. thanks!
Hi! I just found your channel searching, favorite tomatoes. I just subscribed 😊I'm going to start my seeds this week indoors. Picked up Mule Team and Andrew Rehart's jumbo red. Have you ever tried these?
Oh fantastic! I have never grown or tried either of those varieties - you'll have to let us all know the results!! I always grow way too many tomatoes lol
Mule Team has an amazing flavor. I grew it a few years ago and loved it.I was planning on having it in the garden this year but the seeds didn't sprout.
Never heard of these here in the UK will try to find them
They're all available here. Ordered Red Zebra, Cherokee Purple & Japanese Black Trifele. In the States dwarf varieties of heirlooms are becoming more popular as they're less hassle than the vines.
PS ordered Boronia, Maralinga Dwarf & Tasmanian Chocolate, but had to source them from France. The only 'problem'? being that I'll be able to squeeze even more tomatoes into the garden 😄
Great video 👍
Thanks 👍
Covid has Me looking at best tomatoes
😂 omg i know right
My wife and I love peanut butter and tomato sandwiches. But we need a big strong tomato flavor for it. What is a big strong tomato flavor for that?
i grow several that you have mentioned...Pineapple is on my radar, but there is also a Hawaiian Pineapple, not sure if they are the same?
pink Berkley tie dye
what is the best determinate tomato?
Better boy tomato, whats an heirloom variety that's similar to it that can be grown from seed later?
I grew Genuwine a cross of Brandywine and Genovese it produced loads of tomatos in all temperatures even 100 degrees til about December 1st when the spider mites finished it off. The other one I grew Mr. Stripey this tomato was made for SoCal in mind as it also set massive amounts of LARGE yellow/greenish fruit EVEN IN 100+ degree weather. The Genuwine flavor was good does not hold well due to a lot of folding around stem. The Mr Stripey is still growing and setting tomatos here in January the taste is mild and if you get sores from tomatoes this is the one you want the only downside was it did have some cracking around stem but they hold well.
WOW 😍 - so good to know - thank you!!
I always heard brandy wine was a great tomato. I have 65 plants started and figure to sell excess at farmers market. I did hear that production was low per plant. What is your experience.
Never had poor production on brandywine. Last year 2021 was dry here. Great for tomatoes. The brandywine was the winner for production. Most were 1.25lbs+. Big and so tasty. I also get good yields with Kelloggs breakfast. 1 to 2lbs. These are yields two best heirloom slicers I've grown so far.
I will not eat store brought in forever. Just not flavorful. My family prefers homegrown and from the local farm.
I love Cherokee purple. U get a like from me. Last year I grew 15 different tomatoes and so much fun. Adding some new varieties this year. Have fun! God bless.
That's incredible! It sounds like last year must have been wonderful (and this year will be too) 🥰
For sure
What do y’all think about “ celebrity” ? I’m trying a few new Varieties this year
I grew “ pink Brandywine” last year, it was amazing in flavor but not very productive.
I grow celebrity every year. Very productive grower.
I really like celebrity. It is so much more reliable than Brandywine lol. I love the Brandywine flavor but sometimes my plants only grow a few tomatoes each. The celebrity plants, on the other hand, seem to grow buckets of almost-as-yummy tomatoes. I think celebrity is an AAS winner? I've always had success growing the AAS winner varieties...and that one was no different.
@@HomefortheHarvest I’m still gonna plant one Brandywine just because it’s so good. But the bulk will be celebrity

My neighbor asked me why I didn't grow heirloom tomatoes. I told him that I grow tomatoes to eat, not to display in museums or show off to other people.
1. Brandywine
2. Cherokee Purple
3. Black Krim
4. Pineapple
All heirloom varieties
5. Green Zebra
6. Red Snapper
7. Sun Gold
Easier to grow
Sunlight, keep leaves healthy, water (not too much or too little), minimal on feeding (compost is fantastic 4 tomatoes however).
Orangish tomatoes = sweeter/ lower acidity
Purpleish tomatoes = more intense tasting
Greenish tomatoes = tart
U looking like katrina kaif 😂
You are lier.... You are actually permoting sale of that fake tomato variety
