And you know outside tomatoes are the best and beef steak one slice covers your bread and I love that.❤️

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

So good and tasty!

[@novelist99]

This summer I'm growing Heirloom beefsteak tomatoes. I planted them in the garden in May, and they're already about five feet tall and loaded with tomatoes.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

That is awesome! Good Luck!

[@MmmBBQQ]

Beefmaster variety is my go to now! 40 oz couple summers ago. Lots and lots of 2 pounders that taste as good as a better boy.!

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Good stuff! Thanks for sharing and commenting!

[@homefult9427]

Thank you so much for the information!!

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Thanks for watching.

Not sure if a Crnkovic Yugoslavian is a beefsteak tomato or not but it is my favorite tomato. Also trying out the Porterhouse tomato and the Steak sandwich tomato and a woods famous Brimmer this year but not sure they are going to make it. Thanks for the video! I am going to try and look at your pepper videos this week I'm growing some for the first time. Thanks again!

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Thanks for watching and commenting. Now I have a new tomato to look for. Hopefully you find all of my videos helpful!

I can only grow in pots on a north facing porch, which gets a max of about 6 hours of sun in the summer and closer to 4 in spring and fall, so no beefsteak types for me. It's very large porch, and I can still grow lots of tomatoes, though, and not just cherries (though I do grow lots of those, as well as small and early determinates). My largest tomato last year was a 13.6oz Cherokee Purple. Not too shabby. My favorites of last year were Black Prince and Gold Medal. I would LOVE to grow Ananas Noir, though. Oh, and just a little FYI, it is pronounced "an-AN-as NO-are".

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Thank you for the pronunciation break down. I had been looking for one, and of course trying my best to pronounce it while filming was a feat I knew I would have trouble with. Hopefully, it wasn't too much like fingernails on a chalk board. And thanks for sharing your triumphs in growing tomatoes with the growing challenges that you face. I find it a success when I get a ripe tomato no matter the conditions. Thanks for commenting and watching the video. I appreciate it a lot! Gary@SuccessfulGardens

Cherry tomatoes have really good flavor. All the ones I've grown are a little bigger than I would like and they had tough skin that cracked easily.

[@ricksmith1574]

Growing 3 Cherokee plants right now and Im very happy so far. I was told they wouldnt do good but wow alot of large tomatoes on the plants. Im very happy so far. Just gotta keep the animals away.

[@mebeabmet]

Can you turn your porch into a greenhouse? That would keep you busy.

[@aagardfamily4961]

Better boy! They’re one of my “go to’s” for tomatoes. Love this post! I’m hoping you’ll have a future post of tricks to get BIG slicing tomatoes in Wyoming! Fertilizer, watering, pests, etc. tell us how the new variety goes!

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Better Boy was the one that started the commercial hybridation programs that we know today. It is one of the tomatoes that my dad had to plant in the garden each year. It is a great performer. This fall I will have to do an updated video on these tomatoes.

[@BlackJesus8463]

Better Boy is perfect tomato flavor. 👌

[@henrywilliams1965]

I have done fantastic with better boys but could not find any seeds this year . One year i had two better boy hybrids side by side. At one time one had 72 tomatoes on it from a pound to fingernail size , the other lagged behind it only had 72 on it. I do have pictures to prove this as ive read comments degrading the better boy from other folks saying they didnt produce. If your planting them and not getting loads of tomatoes your doing something wrong. Last year the most tomatoes i had on one of my better boys at one time was 56. That a lot of tomatoes brother. I let three stems run from one plant, still have some tomatoes over a pound and most a half pound. Also a very good tasting tomato.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Thank you for sharing and commenting. I sure do wish that YT would allow picture sharing. Great insight on your growing ups and downs. Thanks again and good luck on finding a better seed source.

[@beverlycharles6534]

😮😮😮 NO WAY!!! How? What magic potion is this?😂😂 I am growing them and have nothing like that happening. Last year I got about 20 on 2 plants. This year doing 6 plants of BB. I MUST be doing something wrong.😢

[@henrywilliams1965]

I bought a beefsteak tomato at myers to eat. I decided to save the seeds, fantastic move on my part. I have grown them from seed for the last eight years. Everyone brags on them. They are large great tasting and mostly blemish free. They also bear more fruit than other beefsteakes i have grown. Thing is i have no idea what variety they are but they are defintly a keeper. So if you see a heirloom in the grocery you like save some seeds and plant them next year. You might find a gem like i did.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Thanks for watching and commenting. Great tip for others. Heirlooms are a great find.

[@Sylvaniaohio]

Park Seed Whopper hybrid did really well in 2021. This year my tomatoes didn't get as big but still were very tasty.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

I know a lot of gardeners like P. WHOPPER. Thanks for sharing, and watching.

[@TerryByrdJr]

I've got either better boy or big boys growing along with some celebrities and Cherokee 🟣 I hope the most high blesses my efforts this year🤞🏽

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Best of luck and blessings from on high. Thanks for watching and commenting of which tomatoes you are growing.

[@waltobringer2928]

[@zeldawilson2610]

Yummy we are in tomatoes growing at the moment.because it's summer here in new Zealand

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

So jealous, it's winter and currently -24F (-31C). Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@davidpryorpryor3984]

Belgium giant up to 5 lb best tasting I have ever ate

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

[@PeteCorp]

Use Masterblend fertilizer on them tomatoes to get that 3 lb record.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Thanks for the recommendation.

[@KingLeoTheBossGrowTentgoodplan]

I'm a Breeder of the Beefsteak Tomato 🌱 🍅 I make my own hybrid tomato plant's

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

That's great. Do you ever share or sell your seeds?

[@mebeabmet]

I enjoyed your video. Thank you. Mortgage Lifter.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Great choice of a tomato. Thanks for watching.

[@ddc163264]

Tried to grow beefsteak and I got quite a few, but they were all very tiny. Don't know how to get tomatoes to grow to a hamburger size in an indeterminate plant.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Sorry to hear that you are having problems with getting large tomatoes. Keep on trying.

[@gordonreed248]

Just an FYI: Anana Noire is quite literally the french words for black pineapple. Anana is pineapple and noire is the color black. When I was with my granddaughter in France she soon learned jus anana as her favorite drink to ask for there.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Thank you for sharing. I love the little sentiment story!

[@zeldawilson2610]

And our crop is just starting to get going and some are starting to ripe.

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

What varieties do you plant?

[@markmillers4491]

Have you grown big beef tomato? What are your thoughts?

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Big Beef is a dependable "beefsteak" type tomato, a good goto tomato that is reliable and has good flavor. However, I like some of the other beefsteaks that are out there.

[@markmillers4491]

@@SuccessfulGardens1 thankyou, im looking forward to harvest. So far my big beef is looking fantastic in Springfield Oregon.

[@BlackJesus8463]

No shot 4-pound tomatoes are real. 🤣🤣

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

Yes, yes they are.

[@7upToday]

[@SuccessfulGardens1]

[@beverlycharles6534]

[@metoknow499]

[@SuccessfulGardens1]
