The problem is figuring out when one of these tomatoes is ripe--because they really do stay quite green, until they are over-ripe. At that point they develop a sort of orangey-rosiness on their bottoms ("blossom" end!) One clue--they soften when they are ready to pick. Also: in my garden, the vines set fruit later than the other kinds of tomatoes I was growing, but then they did pump out lots of yummy tomatoes! Be patient! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Article from Totally Tomatoes
