Glad to hear that! We grew a lot of Romas last year, but I think they needed better soil. They were prolific, but didn’t have the great flavor we have had in the past.

I think hubby got the seeds from Walmart, and he used 5 gallons buckets, and some top soil he had on hand. I know initially he trouble with blossom end rot. I told him to add some bone meal and Epsom salts and that did help to curb that issue.

Speaking of Romas last year I planted one Heinz Super Roma. Not only prolific and a nice solid fruit but very tasty as well. Very pleased with it.
