I really have to get to putting by my winter food supply! This basket of San Marzano tomatoes came off of two plants, and I didn't even put a dent in what is there...
And "behind" them I have another half dozen or so that are just beginning to ripen! Fortunately there is nothing better than a San Marzano for freezing, sauce or drying. Plenty of X-Mas gifts in the making, I think!

Not sure if I would call them "sweet" but they are not particularly acidic (as many tomatoes are). San Marzanos are the ultimate Roma or Paste type of tomato, from Italy.

Are these tomatoes a sweet type? I have never come accross these before, also are they ok for growing in a grow bag?

I love growing tomatoes, it's just hard for me to commit to growing them. I haven't made a New Years resolution yet, but I think I'll make one now to make sure I grow some.
