Heading into F6
Ernie's Plump is one of the all time great sauce tomatoes. Super dense, low moisture, extremely low seed count, and rich, rich classic tomato taste. Also, in sheer poundage, the most productive OP tomato I've ever grown. Many years ago, I picked two full, paper grocery bags of fruit off of one plant. I also love Ananas Noir, I think it's beautiful, and has a wonderful, complex sweetness. It also makes delicious (all be it weird looking) sauce which is a bit on the sweet side. I want a dense, low moisture, low seed, PRODUCTIVE, tomato that tastes like a slightly sweeter Ernie's, and has the black/green bi/tri color look of Ananas Noir. In short, my own Holy grail sauce tomato.
I've found some good sauce 'maters along the way, but even better slicers. And excellent productivity and earliness. Indeterminate.
EA FY 7-1 pretty, tasty
EA FY 8-1 big, early, picked way overripe, Ananas Noir type, red skin
EA L 12-16 red, crazy prod, very good, 9/10, my notes say "worth it."
EA L 12-18 very early or-pink T8.5 great, bright
