Last year, we planted 12 tomato plants (6 sweet cherry and 6 big beef) and had LOADS of tasty fruit which filled up my parents freezer all winter long and made excellent sauces and chili. This year, in keeping up with our apparent motto regarding gardening of "Go Big or Go Home!", we planted 24 tomato plants! 6 each of Large Cherry, Jet Star, Mountain Fresh, and Roma. Roma for salsa, bruschetta, and dicing; Cherry for salads and sweet sauces; and the other two for slicing and sauces! We'll become professional canners by the time this season is over!
