If you water to excess it can take away from the flavour. Ones that are
watered only as much as they need are much tastier but it is a fine line
to
draw in the heat we had

They have held the water alot better this year as i have bubble insulation &
paint on shading.I also doubled up grow bags & also planted the toms into
pots through into grow bags ie like ring culture.So they didnt really fully
dry even in the hot weather .I will try letting them dry a little more next
year.I will also try more varieties suggested.
