And for plum tomatoes, I'm growing Milano. This is the first year I've grown these. The plants are very refined, determinate plants, and right now they are loaded with big plum tomatoes. I didn't notice the spotty one until I'd taken the picture, so I had to rush outside and investigate - they seem minor surface blemishes.

The biggest thing I've had to learn about growing tomatoes here in the PNW is the need to really supplement the calcium well. I'm a big fan of fishbone meal, which is surprisingly hard to find around here.
