Matt's Hornet
From breeder Tom Wagner who is most well known for Green Zebra. It's from a cross between Casaday's Folly and Matt's Wild Cherry. No taste review for this one as the plant conked out after it was blown down by the wind and the stem was damaged by me, so these were ripened completely off the vine. Cool looking tomato though. Pretty good yielder and may have some resistance to blight from Matt's Wild Cherry.

Oregon Spring
I grow this one most years as an early bush tomato. The tomatoes are larger than a cherry but not too big that they take a long time to ripen.
Flavour is good.
Oregon Spring
85 days, determinate — The regular leaf plants of 'Oregon Spring' produce large, red, fruits; the first fruits to mature are nearly seedless (parthenocarpic). Another interesting aspect of 'Oregon Spring' is that it sets fruit under the cool spring temperature conditions of the Maritime Northwest. Verticillium wilt race 1 resistant.
Bred by Dr. James R. Baggett of Oregon State University and introduced in 1984. 'Oregon Spring' is a stabilized cross between 'Starshot' and an early maturing, prthenocarpic,Russian variety called 'Severianin'. Each packet contains approximately 20 seeds, and there are about 85 seeds per 0.25 gram.

Mine are grown in the greenhouse, lots of fruit and very good flavour. Son has been choosing these over any of the others.

Who was the seed supplier Veggie
Also can anyone tell me if the taste changes with tomatoes as you feed them, by that I mean do the tomatoes lose their taste between feeds if you are feeding once or twice a week, or even feeding every other day?

RE: Tomato Gallery - toomanytommytoes - 13-09-2021
It's often thought that watering too much makes tomatoes taste bland. That's definitely my experience with tomatoes grown in pots outdoors, if we have a very wet spell where the compost stays saturated, they just taste bleh. Underwatering on the other hand can lead to problems with blossom end rot, but that's usually more of an issue with larger or plum varieties.

I water my GH toms every day in summer, just a splash. One watering can for about a dozen plants. I've been adding a glug of Hot Bin juice to it about twice a week. Can't say I've notice any difference in flavour.
