Kellog's Breakfast wasn't very productive for me last year-- 6 or 7 tomatoes per plant. Set the seedlings out in mid May. Photo below of the first ripe was taken on Aug 7th:

Kellogg's has been a struggle for me. The past two years I've grown it, it has been less than stellar in the productivity department.

The first year I got only one, but large fruit. The second I had about four, but most fell to the dreaded BER (blossom end rot). This year...the first that I have grown from my own saved seed, it is still lagging behind the others, but I still have hope as it appears to be blooming and setting.

From my observations, this plant is just a slacker:)

If this year is a bust, I'll have to seek other orange beefsteak options, and Amana Orange is also out of the running for the same reasons.

Grown it a few times, and I've observed that KB is not exactly an early setter (usually tends to drop quite a few blossoms before getting started along the path to some solid fruit set) nor has it ever been particularly prolific for me. It's one that generally falls into the avg production and mid-late class for me in my garden/growing conditions.

Yes, this is a late season variety but then it is extra special so worth waiting for. Should be along in August.

I agree with oldroser and suze. I have grown KB many years and they are among the latest to get going each year. They grow a nice big plant first and then in August they really start going to town. Well worth the wait though. I switched to KBX this year. Three KBX plants. They are behaving exactly like KB so far and look to be just as late except they have potato leaves and are beating diseases better than most of my other varieties. I can't wait to taste one.
