I suspect we don't have the heat here to develop the proper sweetness in that variety.RugbugRedfernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07577451365223871241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153778458693683617.post-51972215030900945912008-05-30T11:37:00.000-05:002008-05-30T11:37:00.000-05:00Hi!

My oldest daughter would eat them right off the plant. I think the best time to pick them is when they start to turn from yellow to a yellow-orange color. We've left them on the plant for up to a week or two after they turned color and they were still delicious. Alas, this year my plant nearly died because the sprinklers weren't hitting it right and I'm not sure it's going to come back. =(<BR/><BR/>Look forward to reading more!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01204570175713305823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153778458693683617.post-76657297116081091052008-05-30T09:44:00.000-05:002008-05-30T09:44:00.000-05:00Depends on how much attention I give them.

We enjoyed tomatoes again in October until the first frost killed them in late October/November from the same plants we got tomatoes from earlier in the season.Melanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10659171744653526241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153778458693683617.post-11083590554548274402008-05-29T22:29:00.000-05:002008-05-29T22:29:00.000-05:00I'm always amazed at your seasons down south.

And I understand your plants will be dead from the heat about the time ours start producing.RugbugRedfernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07577451365223871241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9153778458693683617.post-27024661411596627742008-05-28T12:44:00.000-05:002008-05-28T12:44:00.000-05:00Woohoo!
