As soon as I saw the photo I knew it was a mortgage lifter, they are a beautiful tasting tomato....I've grown Mortgage Lifter. It's a great tomato that produces large yields of big tomatoes. This is the first year in quite a few I haven't grown any. This year I'm growing Siletz, Siberia, Delicious, and just plain Beefsteak from some cheap 20¢ pack of seeds.

I never had much luck with sweet corn, only tried it twice with Silver Queen and it was tough both times. Old timer told me it was too old. Always seemed like too much effort for too little product.Does anyone have a clue as to why white corn would be tough? We watered the hell out of it, every other day with a drip line, so I don't think it was a water issue. Possibly waited too long to harvest?
My view also, the son wanted to grow it so we tried. I can buy it for less than a dollar an ear so I see no point.I never had much luck with sweet corn, only tried it twice with Silver Queen and it was tough both times.

You can freeze tomaotes.i am starting to get overwhelmed View attachment 4661664
I just throw them in there whole, unless I plan on making sauce with them. We've made yellow marinara before, looks strange but tastes just fine.I may have too. Can only give so many away.
Do you blanch and remove the skin before freezing?
So full up with tomato basil mozzarella. Need more ideas. Thank you for the suggestion.I just throw them in there whole, unless I plan on making sauce with them. We've made yellow marinara before, looks strange but tastes just fine.
Maybe too mature. Corn comes and goes so fast I always say it's not worth it. But that first mess of the year. . . . .Does anyone have a clue as to why white corn would be tough?
