I love tomato talk!
I love Cherokee Carbon. So productive and the color is just intensely beautiful.
I will live vicariously through you for another month. All I have are cherry tomatoes. 👍🏼🍅😃
Mater meat! It’s what’s for dinner! 😂 Y’all, I ate sooo many tomato sandwiches this year!
We are about to eat our second cherokee purple tomato--it is an event! Bacon and tomato sandwich time! We shared our first one with our adult son. I don't know if he appreciated the glory of eating the first real tomato of the season!
I Absolutely Love my Yellow/Gold Tomatoes they're Tasy and HUGE
Speaking of non-red tomatoes still seeming exotic to some people: I gave a friend a few of my surplus "Cherokee Green" tomatoes that are green when ripe. It wasn't easy to convince him and his wife that they shouldn't be fried.
I have found that the trick to getting the best flavor from the purple cherry tomatoes is to let them get really, really ripe. When you think they're ready, wait some more. The skin starts out kinda brownish, but wait until its dark. It'll look almost like a muscadine.
I always look forward to your tomato reviews.
The purple GMO from Norfolk were slow to get started, but they’re still setting a ton of blossoms but I think the heat here in Centex is causing ‘em fits.
In Arkansas here, I've harvested about a hundred of the purple tomatoes. Make sure they are very ripe, nearly black, before eating and they will taste good and they look really cool when sliced.
I love tomato talking!❤❤
Me too!!!
Ive eaten so many mater sammies I sweat mater juice but I wont stop till the heirlooms stop,some plants are dying but some are still responding the miracle grow and super triple phosphate,heirlooms are aggravating but have un matched flavor,unmatched. 🍻
My mouth is watering watching you enjoy that Turkey Creek mater. I'm still waiting for mine to ripen. 😮
Hey Trav. I know this video is about tomatoes but in the first few seconds I heard a bob white in the background.
You are truly a lucky man.
Cheers.
Good to hear a Bobwhite
Haven't heard one in Virginia in 20 years
Go Travis.......I saw that tomato juice squirting made my mouth water lol
I have tomato envy. Mine won't be ready for another month at least.
Seriously, if you havent grown them, give italian heirloom a try. Its almost like a giant amish paste with way better flavor. Really tasty, meaty, and giganormous. Can be used as slicers or canning/salsa maters
Yesss!!! I grew them this year! Even in the deep south heat & humidity, they are HUGE! Plants stayed healthier longer than all the others too!
where did you source the seeds for Italian Heirloom please? Thanks!
@@MimsysGarden where did you source the seeds for Italian Heirloom please? Thanks!

@MimsysGarden where did you get the seeds
Okay Travis just bought the yellow tomato seeds. I’m shooting for a second round. I’m hoping the weather holds before autumn.😅
Boy those would make a good mater sandwich i believe ill make me a couple here in little while for lunch
After watching you cut up those tomatoes, I cut up one of our Humble Harvest tomatoes and drizzled olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the tomatoes and a slice of sourdough bread. I might try Red Snapper and Roadster again next year. I also want to try that BHR and Cherokee Carbon tomatoes that you grew. I’ve grown Black Krim and some other black/brown tomatoes, and we really like that earthy flavor. Too bad there’s not a determinate black tomato variety. Thanks for sharing!
The Turkey creek, BHN gold and roadster are all doing great. watching you eat tomatoes I had to go get one too.
Travis you missed the red ones in the middle on no2 tomato 4.40-445 time counter
Nice tomatoes
AND... this doesn't get you off the hook by doing your Duke Mayo and white bread tomato sandwiches. love Duke Mayo for toms. So do that Sir! I love fired ripe tomatoes. That's my weakness. Life and gardening is good. Very, Very Good. ENJOY IT!
Your tomatoes sure look yummy 😋
Hey Trav😊
I had a couple of the Purple GMO tomatoes ripen for me a couple weeks ago and they were about as exciting as eating ice cubes, but they are beautiful, lol.
That’s what is nice about you. You are about 6 weeks ahead of us. I have 14 varieties in, Hosinator, Red Snapper and Roadster. My recommended one in Michigan is Mortgage Lifter. Otherwise Brandywine and Madame Marmade is the ultimate. We may not have a wet a season as the last 2 years which blighted out everything. Pickles are my 2nd love. 3rd, Easy fun to grow onions. 4rd is Okra., peppers of some fermenting variety. And sunflowers. And my watermelons at the stores have been delicious!
Mortgage Lifter! I grow them in Georgia zone 7b. They have to be babied here with frequent spraying of copper but those things taste better than any other heirloom tomatoes I have ever grown. Fruit set when it's very hot is sporadic but when the weather cools a bit they get right back to it.
@@virginiadaneke2362 - Mortgage Lifter is just hearty and keeps producing. It grows 8’+ until frost hits it. It was my #1 tasting tomato last year. Other years, not so much.
- I put in a 2nd planting of CowHorn Okra. The first set didn’t seem to come up.
- Started doing Monterey Complete Disease Control last week. Everything is looking pretty good. I’m happy with the varieties I have in.
Jeff from East Tennessee. I am going a ton of tomato plants this year. I am trying to get tomatoes all the way to the end of summer. I planted a ton of red snappers. I have most plants loaded getting ready to turn. But I have a more red snappers just little more than a foot tall. It’s been a hot summer for East Tennessee so far. Most days in the 90’s. Just had 95 the other day! And it’s been bone dry. The other tomatoes I am going is a small row of beef stakes,lemon boy,brandywine, and a yellow Dr. wyches. Everything is loaded up.
😢 My tomatoes are gone already! I’ve started more. It’s just too hot for anything but cherries in the shade now.
Do a video on the top canning tomatoes
I grew a 12.7 and 12.6 oz. Black Krim this year, but have to say they were not acidic enough for my taste. I prefer German Johnson for a pure acidic flavor. I grow Kellogg every year for a great yellow tomato flavor. I grew Wyche this year for the first time. Very similar flavor to Kellogg. I will definitely order Turkey Creek when seeds are available. Great video!
❤.. a man and his 'maters.. looks Delicious !!!
Thanks for your advice & knowledge..
Funny thing .. I live in zone 5, southern Ontario..
My full size tomatoes (Beefsteak, maraianna & Buffalosun) are almost 2 feet tall now.. just starting to flower..
My grape tomatoes are closer to 4 feet tall & do have some clusters on them; still green..
So... I have a bit of a wait ahead before I will be taste testing my own maters....
Enjoy your bounty..
God bless. ....
❤😊
Thanks Travis. My red snapper and roadstar plants got early blight bad, but are still producing. I can't seem to find the bhn yellow tomatoes. Do you have a link?

We may never get any fruit to set. It has been over 110F for a long time. Yesterday 118F. Today likely higher. Saturday expected to be 121F. Then is drops back down to more 110F+ days.
So sorry to hear that. I’m in Central Florida with 90+ degree heat and rain. Lots more f splitting. Maybe in August I will plant beefsteaks 😊
@@patriciaduffield2319 At least we have 10% humidity
We hit 117 today and possibly tomorrow 120. My tomatoes have set, but the heat is brutal! I live near Redding, California, in Palo Cedro.
John McHatton
Yikes, that's oppressive heat!
@@cmchatton1680 I have a friend who lives west of I-5 in Cottonwood. I'm sure they are having similar temperatures.
I grew Cherokee Carbon a few years ago. I like Cherokee Purple better but it has ultra thin skin and is susceptible to disease. The Cherokee Carbon survived until frost. Most of the recently introduced heirloom crosses turn out to be duds in my experience but the Cherokee Carbon is an exception. It's hard to believe it's vigorous down there. It will likely set more fruit if you can keep it alive until the temps moderate some.
Salt! I'd need a little dab of salt to really make them pop.
Wow beautiful tomatoes. I did not have any luck with my celebrity and homestead varieties this year.
Do you have any of the any of the determinate Red Snapper or Roadster tomato seeds available for sale if not where did you purchase them?
Thanks
BJ
Roll TIde Roll
We have Roadster seeds in stock on our website. Red Snapper is out currently, but should be restocked soon.
Hi Lazy Dog Fam!
I also grew BHN 871 this year, though I grew around 100 plants. I was impressed by the fruit size and taste, but the yield and days to maturity were not worth it from a commercial standpoint. If I were a home gardener, BHN 871 would definitely be my go to for a yellow determinate. I think they taste better than the standard yellow determinate called Carolina Gold, though Carolina Gold is considerably quicker in my opinion.
Travis, i'm in zone 8b and I have grown Cherokee Carbon. There are a few other indeterminate tomatoes that perform really well for me down here, to where I actually grow them commercially. Try out Lemon Boy and Hot Streak from Johnny's, they both perform as well as Cherokee Carbon in zone 8b. I promise you those two varieties will not let you down. Another good indeterminate for the south are those Berkley Tye Dye tomatoes. They have horrible shelf-life though.
Try Hot Streak if you chose one! You will not be disappointed. They are as good tasting as they are pretty. They fly off the farm stand. The picture Johnny's has for that fruit does not do it justice. It is an iridescent red when ripe, at least when grown in the southern sun.
Thanks for the suggestions!
Hey Trav, did the BHN gold take longer to harvest than the red snapper and roadster?
Seems like it was a tad slower, but not by much.
I want to try Red Snapper seeds, can you give me an idea when they will be in stock ?
Hopefully within the next week or so.
Surprised to see you don't have any bees or other pollinators flying around your plants. Nice job on the tomatoes.
We usually do in the mornings. But not so much late in the evenings.
I had a few deer come out and top everyone of my tomato plants. Don’t know if I’m even gonna get one.
😢
Travis I’m growing Red Snapper. They’ve produced like crazy! Are you still watering your tomatoes on a consistent basis?
We've been getting rain every afternoon it seems for the last week. So no.
@@LazyDogFarm Been dry as a bone here in the Mississippi Delta. Just watered them recently.
Wow those are some big tomato's mine are very small celebrity the beef steaks died
I dont like my tomatoes very big. I love when I cut one , I just use it all at once . Its the same for onions, just dont them very big.
Hi Travis, have you ever set out indeterminates around July for tomatoes ripening late for September/October. Used to do this in Arkansas between 60" rows of sorghum or tall corn for early shady cool spot then cut the sorghum and they would stay pretty healthy. You could maybe take a cutting from the turkey creek and still try it out.
I might try some fall tomatoes this year, but I think I'll push them back a little further.
Can you share your seed sowing process with the red snapper? I bought some seeds from you, but they never germinated. I know I must have done something wrong. I never do seeds, always transplants. Would love to know your process.
Here's a video showing our process: th-cam.com/video/QYJnPq0Z-io/w-d-xo.html
What happens if we try and plant the hybrid seed from the tomato? Will it not grow at all? Or do you get a bad tomato?
It will grow but won't produce the same fruits as the parent plant. The seeds from hybrids don't grow true. The seeds that grow true are heirlooms.
North Florida, Red Snapper are done. Stink bugs put a rotted spot on 80%. Little bastards wait until the tomato shows just a little blush of color before they take one bite and go to the next one. All I have left is Cherry Baby and Yellow Pear under a shade cloth.
North Florida here too and those stink bugs put a dead stop on the last of my Hossinators and Russian Lemony. Glad the bulk of my harvest ended 2 weeks ago.
What is the difference between cherokee carbon and cherokee purple? They look the same.
Cherokee Purple is a heirloom and Cherokee Carbon is a hybrid..
@@MarkLada thank you.
Hey Travis. I get flowers but no tomatoes in Zone 9. What's wrong!😢
It's either too much heat or no pollination. Some varieties won't set fruit in extreme heat. Same problem here in 7b Georgia
Does that bhn gold taste similar to lemon boy?
Yes
Will you have any Turkey Creek seeds for sale this year?😊
Yes we should have a limited supply later this year or early next year.
@@LazyDogFarm Excellent, thanks!!.
Seriously!!!! Which ones make the best sauce????
Turkey Creek would probably make the best sauce of the ones we showed. But getting enough of them to make a batch of sauce would be the tricky part.
Tomato horn worm @4:15? If so, you won't need to worry how much longer the plant will last as that thing will take your plant down in a couple of days.
Sharp eyes! I didn't see that. Spraying Bt will fix that every time.
