But are they determinate or indeterminate tomatoes?
This is a test.
“ Modern man as so messed up the tomato”
Look for the type “Porter”.
Some small shops still carry them.
They have wonderful flavor.
“She opened her eyes to see me in my underwear, standing at the open bedroom window with a rifle, saying “Got him.”
I hope she dragged you back into bed and rewarded you appropriately.
That reminds me of the story a friend of mine told me about how his wife shot a turkey from their bedroom window while she was stark naked. Apparently she’d heard the Tom gobble. She woke him up and said “cover your ears”. She knocked that bird over DRT.
My friend was laughing his head off telling the story and his wife confirmed it was true.

I wonder if there is some sort of methylation that is influencing the DNA transcription process.
I think that's unconstitutional. Someone is making an absolut killing hybridizing the shape of an heirloom tomato with a modern tasteless varietal and selling them to Whole Foods.What does modern agriculture have against good tasting tomatoes. What?

There’s thousands of varieties, including stuffer type, oxheart, slicers, beefsteaks, but off-season toms have to be shipped to these winter areas, and naturally aren’t as good.
The Porter varieties were developed over 100 years ago by a man here in Texas named Porter.
Well they are not available as near as I can tell anywhere in DC which is probably a good thing.
Will no one post an Attack of the Killer Tomatoes reference?
We’re slipping, people...
Indeed.
The main reason the tomato was often thought to be poisonous in early America is, there are relatives that are. Worth takin’ a chance though...
