          I will also be growing Amish Paste outside this year, amongst a number of other varieties I can't fit in the greenhouse.

            Its my first year growing properly, and I too have about 10 Amish Paste toms. Still only about 8-10 inches high.

            After much googling I'm gonna put half in the GH, and half in containers outside to compare. the outside half are hardening off during the days now.

            I wouldn't say they're leggy, but some of the side shoots and the top shoot tend to be a bit floppy. Does that sound right?

              Grown outside - 14.5oz.

              The ones in the greenhouse are still ripening.

                    interesting...my reasonably early-sown seedlings completely failed to progress, when other more hardcore ones e.g. black sea man did fine. has anyone else experienced this with A.M?
                    Also, how's the taste? I was going to give up on them for next year, but if they're yum I'll try once again.
