Harvested 11 Ounce Cherokee Purple


The morning's harvest consists of 5 Red Grape, 4 SunSugar, 4 Sweet 100, 2 Italian Ice, 2 Sweet Olive and an 11 ounce Cherokee Purple tomato.

I was testing the Cherokee Purple to see if it was ready. After testing I noticed that the stem supporting this tomato was broken. So I picked it. I don't know if the stem was broken prior to my testing but since it was, the tomato would have laid on the ground. Not good, so I picked it.

I did some minor tomato taping in the front yard.

The second of the two ripening Paul Robeson tomatoes is a big one.
