Are they in the ground or in a pot? I have beefsteak tomatoes, too, and cos they’re in a pot, the fruits are tiny. My boyfriend’s mom has hers in the ground, and they grew to normal size!

Where’s the beef?

The branch cluster sure looks like a cherry- the tomato seed that germinates is not necessarily the tomato seed you planted.

Dissapointing but still yummy 🙂 my gma has two plants on her stairs and always pick a few before going to work

I was duped to this year too! Bought 10 tomato plants thinking only 1 was cherry tomatoes. Turned out 8 were and my jalapeños turned out to be scotch bonnets. Dang them all to heck! Been going to same greenhouse for over a decade I’ll give them a piece of my mind next season. Lol won’t change a thing/they could care less.

I bought a packet of supposed Beefsteak tomato seeds in 2022, grew a bunch of seedlings and planted the “best” ones but they didn’t produce well and the tomatoes were small and not shaped right. I thought I did something wrong. This year I plant the same seeds and randomly choose the best to plant, and 2 out of 4 plants are a mystery variety. Small, mushy and they suck.
Tomatogate 2023 leftover from 2022.

I’m curious who the seed producer was. The Early Girls I planted from seed this year were very much not Early Girls. They all came out the same — a long, teardrop-shaped tomato I’ve never seen before. I’ve been wondering if they just mislabeled the seeds, or if they got cross-pollinated before they were packaged and didn’t turn out true to type.

A lesson indetermination.
For really small steaks.
Accidents happen! Enjoy 💚
I think you got steak tips instead.
Those are clearly Hylian tomatoes (gorgeous!)
Mine did this too!
