IMO Celebrity tomatoes are a very solid meh when it comes to taste. They have been really reliable for me over the last couple years of growing them but very boring and I definitely don't reach for them to put on sandwiches. I think I mentioned this in an earlier post but I mainly use them for salsa.

Agree. It’s why I don’t grow them anymore. Better Boys have been my go-to for a while, but I’ve been leaning more toward beefsteak tomatoes. I think I’m going to gradually start switching over to mostly heirloom varieties. I want to start saving seeds.

I'm wondering what the board thinks I should do with my hydroponic tomato plant. It's a bush goliath plant that I started last fall. I harvested a decent number of tomatoes already, but it's still producing. Right now I have over a dozen green tomatoes on the plant, and it is still making new flowers. The thing is, this is a determinate variety and I thought they were supposed to produce all the fruit in a short span, then nothing.
Should I harvest the current crop when they're ready and then pull the plant, or keep it as long as it seems to be going strong? It takes up a lot of space, so I'd hate to not be able to utilize that space if the plant isn't likely to produce any more.
