untrue Green Zebra?

heirloomdaddy · May 31, 2010

Hey guys.

I've grown this cultivar once before, so I don't have too much to go on. The fruits are about an inch in diameter at this point, and If I recall correctly, shouldn't they be showing stripes yet? More confusing however, is that two of the three fruits in the first truss are quite pointy....almost heart shaped. The following fruit set look like globes however. I know that the early fruit on any plant can act a little funny, but is this typical? When do the stripes show up fmi?

greatly appreciated,
matt

I've had pointy Green Zebras before. So I wouldn't rule it out just yet.
