Juli, late is fine! I know you had plenty of other things to do after the power went back on.
I am not surprised about the lower production of CHEROKEE PURPLE as from what I read the heirlooms always have lower production. No matter, I am really ready to try something different so can't wait until it gets ripe. Meanwhile, I have been eating afew Sungold each day. Not having any problems with cracking at all and they taste oh so good.
