Worst tomato ever,
September 16, 2009
Submitted by Jackal
from Piscataway
"Although a nice idea, not worth the time or effort.
Planted 8 seeds got three plants. Other varieties of tomato had over 90 % germination rates. Plants grew slowly, producing several small tomatoes most of which sucumbed to blosom end rot where as no other tomato varieties had any BER. All the seedless tomatoes though appearing red ripe on the outside had a green interior with a very inferior flavor much like the cardboard tasting tomatoes in the grocery store in winter.
Will definitely not waste any garden space or effort on this variety next year!"

Nothing to Write Home About,
September 15, 2009
Submitted by OHOrganic

"A friend gave us a plant of Sweet Seedless to trial amongst our 104+ tomato plants on our organic farm. We grow almost all heirlooms but are willing to make space for the occasional hybrid such as the ever wonderful Sungold Cherry or another that is likely to be something special.
While the Sweet Seedless plant grew nearly as tall as the others in the beds, it was not as vigorous, and the production was rather sparse. Initial tomatoes were larger then size dropped off as the season progressed, basically changing from 8-10 oz. fruit to 3-4 oz. ones. Flavor was okay but nothing to write home about, and texture tended a little toward mealiness.
If you cannot have seeds and are unwilling to remove the seeds yourself on regular tomatoes, it is an option, but if you are looking for quintessential rich ripe tomato flavor, try another variety."

Disappointing,
September 11, 2009
Submitted by luvSummer

"I had no problem with getting the seeds to germinate this spring. I started them indoors in late April and got a bunch of healthy seedlings. The mature plants were small, but stocky. The fruit set well, but ripened slowly-- probably due to our cooler than normal summer here. Also had a problem with blossom end rot on this variety but not on the other two varieties I grew this year. My main complaint with these tomatoes is that the gel where the seeds would be is a very unappetizing shade of green. The taste of the tomatoes is just ordinary-- not much better than store-bought this time of year. In addition, my husband won't eat these tomatoes at all unless I scrape all the gel out first, which is way too much trouble. I won't purchase these again."

Please forgive me!,

"...for not believing your product description! I thought I would be sacrificing taste for the benefit of a seedless tomato (I cannot eat seeds), but the flavor is full,rich & sweet. Even though my plants experienced early blight, the fruits were picture-perfect; just the right size, & sliced beautifully."
