\ud83c\udf45 Quick take:<\/strong> Dirty Curty is an experimental, potentially unstable anthocyanin line (seeds originally circulated by Valdis Pulins) that produces mid-season, heavy-yielding indeterminate vines. While the intended shape is oblate with dark blue or “dirty gray” shoulders, growers note it can segregate into different shapes, such as elongated “boats.” Regardless of the shape, the consensus is that the flavor is outstanding\u2014sweet, juicy, and arguably one of the best-tasting dark\/blue varieties out there.

Dirty Curty<\/p>\n

EXPERIMENTAL VARIETY. Might still be segregating. Valdis Pulins shared the seeds with me.<\/p>\n

Mid-season, heavy yielding indet. Plant height is roughly 5.5 feet (1.70 m). Pruned it to 2 stems. Regular leaf. Tomatoes are oblate, red-pink with dark blue or dirty gray shoulders, sometimes throwing dark stripes too, weighing up to 10.5 oz (300 g). The fruits are incredibly tasty, sweet and juicy. This was hands down one of the best-tasting blue varieties I’ve ever grown. Definitely growing it again.<\/p>\n

Got my seeds from Valdis too. But mine didn’t turn out oblate. Super unusual color. And the shape wasn’t oblate at all, it was more boat-shaped. Definitely growing it again. Really happy with the yield and flavor, next year I’ll make sure to plant it in a sunnier spot.<\/p>\n
