Taboule, last year I picked 12 pounds of green Cowlick and 12.5 pounds of green Cherokee Chocolate tomatoes at the end of the season. Cowlick ripened great. Taste was excellent, fruits were firm. Cherokee Chocolate ripened as well but was more finicky. Some great and some soft and few did rot.
This year I noticed that Claude Brown’s Y. Giant (picked green) is ripening so beautifully. It taste superb. My DH cut one of the big (over a pound) CBYG and could not stop eating it. I have one more that is getting there.
My observations so far is that pink and yellow store much better than black tomatoes.
Sorry, taking it back. Girl Girl's Weird Thing is stripe outside but looks black inside. It has being firm for me and stores long time.
