Very disappointed
I am extremely disappointed with the tomatoes of this plant.All the tomatoes are getting blossom end rots.I planted other veggies( cherry tomatoes, pepper and chilli plant) using the same soil, fertilizer and watering technique and they r all doing great. I invested on calcium fertilizer further but it was of no use. Not a value for money.

    Gotta have them
    Fantastic flavor! They are like Roma's on steroids. One plant produced at least two dozen for me.

      What grew tasted good...BUT
      These tasted good, but had limited fruit throughout the growing season in 2016 ... am going to give them another go at some point.

        Didn't get many good ones
        I found the same to be true as the previous reviewer. They are not very disease resistant. Mine were very susceptible to blossom end rot and I lost many when green or just turning red. The plants themselves did well and I got lots of green tomatoes. My other tomatoes (not Roma) did fine growing right next to these. Maybe they require some special care or fertilizer, idk. I'd say i lost more than half to rot. Those that did make it were nice and big and meaty. They are bigger than average Roma’s. It's a shame, because they are very nice tomatoes when they make it. If anyone knows how to fix this problem please post. I grew them over the summer of 2016 here in Maryland (Washington D.C area). In my opinion the growing conditions were very good this summer. I did apply Serenade to keep the leaf spot away and it worked pretty well for all my tomatoes. I tried balance fertilizers and ones with higher phosphate. I also kept the weeds down well with cardboard covered with grass clippings.
