Tomato Peculiarities
- The tomatoes are ripening on the small side. Their taste (heirloom slicing)is quite spicy, great for a pasta
sauce, not for a slice on a sandwich. There is also a little bit of green inside the only one that has ripened
so far. Any idea what that is?

- Not all heirloom and open pollinated varieties will ripen to the uniform red color we are used to seeing
in store-bought or hybrid varieties. My Amish Paste tomatoes had distinctive green shoulders (inside and
out) last year. This is normal and they never did redden their shoulders (even indoors for over a week).
