mhpgardener | Hydroponic Tomato Taste Test @mhpgardener | Uploaded May 2012 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
It's time to find out what this hydroponic tomato actually tastes like. The variety is Big Beef. Compared to a soil grown Big Beef, I'd give this about an 8-8.5 out of 10. As expected, it's not quite as good as a soil grown tomato. However, taking into consideration the ease of growing, and the fast production. I think it is well worth doing again. I think I can grow my trademark Rutgers and get an even better tasting hydroponic tomato. Looks like I'll be doing a fall crop of hydroponic tomatoes. Also, I'm showing the Trinidad Scorpion pepper that is growing in the same Dutch Bucket setup and doing extremely well.
