Tomato bonanza

In May, I planted several expensive red-tomato plants in Robbinsdale. Finally got a few measly fruits like the red ones above out of them. The same week in May, I planted two spindly 25-cent, 5-inch yellow-tomato plants in Lake City, mostly out of pity and a mad-scientist curiosity; they grew into HUGE plants, each of which has yielded more than 50 sweet, large, perfect golden tomatoes. Country soil is just better.
