Sorry, I just saw the picture from GrowingCoastal. Will the dark purple ones on the lower right turn more reddish brown like the ones on the upper left when they are ripe?[/QUOTE]
Yes. Even when they turn colour I test with a light squeeze. They give just a little when ready to pick.
I find myself not disliking GWR, but they are generally on the lower end of my preferred list. Of the 20 or 30 GWRs I've tried. BAG is the only green (I think it's considered a GWR?) that is on my must grow return list. After that maybe, Dwarf Jade Beauty.
