| Hi, I'm a small market grower in Southeast Louisiana. I've been growing tomatoes for market, including a few heirlooms, for a couple of years now. I just bought a high-tunnel and want to grow early heirlooms in it for spring. My space is limited, so I'm mostly concerned about productivity. Taste is next. Also, I've found larger tomatoes sell much better in my market than small ones.
What do you think my best candidates would be? Where can I purchase them? |

| Here are some possibles: Gregori's Altai - early good flavored red tomato with decent production and tolerant of some stress. You can get seed of most of these at tomatogrowers |

| I grew Pink Brandywines and Mortgage Lifters this past year and was very impressed with the ML. Flavor was there and the fruits were large. Both are indeterminate. |
