Whats the difference in a better girl vs the better boy?

X2 never heard of them before but doing better than anything else I have planted.

Cray, the Angel Wings nursery there on 178 Byhalia had them this year. She ran an ad in craigslist for free plants. I bought a tray of mixed plants and a few pots and got a free tray of mixed tomato plants.
The Sweet 100's are suppose to the sweetest about 1" dia. Mine aren't, might find one about 3/8" and have a good tomato taste. The cherry and grape tomatoes are sweeter.

That's where I got mine went free but almost. She told me it was first time she had planted them. She is good people and gave neighbor some help on his bushes and plants.Thumbs UpThumbs Up

try the goliath original,been planting them for years. you won't be disappointed.

AR Travelers are the saltiest high acid tomato that ive found. All I plant is Travelers and Better Boys.

I raise my own plants and I found another good one, Mr. Jim. It's an old tomatoe from the depression era known as "Mortgage Lifter". It's a tart tomato, but still sweet. Right now they're loaded up and still blooming.

I get most of mine from "Southern Seed Exchange", Mr. Jim. You can
Google for "Heirloom Vegetable Seeds" and come up with a long list of sellers.
