Has Anyone here grown Burpee's "Summer Girl?"
I plan to grow this one next season. There are several tomato "Girls" being sold, but this one has a benefit that is important to me -- it supposedly doesn't crack or split. I hate cracking and splitting nearly as much as Septoria. It's been released for several years, so perhaps someone here has tried it? By its characteristics, it is similar to "New Girl" from Johnny's. I did grow NG several years ago, but found it wasn't noticeably different than Early Girl. Hopefully this one is bigger and at least as tasty. (https://www.burpee.com/vegetables/tomat ... 03447.html)

Re: Has Anyone here grown Burpee's "Summer Girl?"
Not yet. I've tried Early Girl F1, Valley Girl F1, and Gurney Girl's Best F1, though. A friend tried Golden Girl F1 (and I believe she liked it; either that or Golden Sunburst; I gave her both and she liked one of them a lot, as it produced a lot of sizeable, tasty fruits).
The reviews on Burpee's site don't look terribly promising for Summer Girl F1, though. Some of the reviewers seem to love it, however.
