Snow White Toms

[ninjajane]

Any one grow these?

They have gone a cream colour (yippie ) but the shoulders are a darker cream - the area you get green back on a red tom. This might be a stupid question but I have had cherry tom's where the colour is the same but these do not seem to be changing. Is this normal?? I don't want to leave them to over ripen.

Do they feel slightly soft? With Green Zebra I go as much by the feel as the colour. Try one - it's only one tomato you've lost if it's under-ripe.

I have the same problem with Black Cherry, dark brown as it ripens, have to go by the feel.

they started splitting so had no choice and they were very very nice. I have to wait for my black cherries as well Suky.

Feel bit stupid for asking but you wouldnt eat a red tom with greenback would you? or maybe you would!

Yep - if it was that kind of tom. Some of the older larger ones always have greenback and they taste fab. Cherokee Purple to name but one.
