Sparky is Super!!

This is a great tomato for many uses. It had great germination and went well past other tomatoes into late fall. It is a vigorous grower so be prepared for trellising this one- vines were probably pushing 8-10 ft if stretched out from root to tip. We starting with just stakes in the bed and ended up building a bamboo pole cage around it to support the plants. It looked nuts and the neighbors must have thought we were crazy, but it kept all the plants going and secure through some tropical storms.
Once the plants start fruiting they really don't stop- make sure to keep up with fertilizer to keep them from pooping out on ya.
Great flavor and hold really well on the vine- XSL.
We used them for eating, canning, and drying.
This was the first seed I looked for next summer.
