i like to see the varieties being saved but often i am quite disappointed with older varieties in terms of flavor and cooking ability

this year i am trying pinching out the growing points of pees so they will branch and hedge up and do this about 3 times and see if the crop is better

i tried some older tomato varieties last year but they were all rubbish has any one had any real success with the older (lost) varieties ?
