Mortgage Lifter
What you describe doesn't sound like a mortgage lifter to me.
By "pretty", do you mean round, uniform and really red, like a grocery store tomato? My ML are huge, non-uniform in both shape and color, prone to cracking, and generally just ugly. Definitely not pretty, but very meaty and tasty, with few seeds and not very much juice. We've been eating on a red one for the past couple of days. I put a slice on a turkey sandwich and the slice overlapped a normal slice of white bread by a couple of inches on every side. Not even enough juice to make the bread soggy. If I were guessing, it likely weighed at least a pound and a half. Are you sure they are true ML? tom On Wed, 24 Aug 2011 13:28:35 -0400, Boron Elgar wrote: So I planted some Mortgage Lifter tomatoes this year. The plants grew very well, were most prolific in flowering, setting and ripening of fruit. The only problem is that the tomatoes are not wonderful. They look fabulous. They would make ideal magazine shots or state fair entries, but they are, at least to me, underweight for their size and have no depth of flavor whatsoever. |
