which tomatoes have green or yellow shoulders as a trait

[zeroma]

I'm trying to recall the delicious tomatoes I grew a few years ago that have the description of green shoulders. German Johnson comes to mind, but there were a few of them.

thanks

I would say most old varieties have green shoulders

Many, maybe even most Black tomatoes have some degree of green shoulder.

In my garden /experience only dark/blacks get green shoulder.

Pink Cheeks has yellow shoulders. It's otherwise pink.

I have quite a few pink and red large varieties that are developing yellow shoulders late this season, when they did not have them earlier in the summer. Not sure if it's sunscald due to lack of leaf cover, or some depletion of nutrients or mix of weather related events.

Thanks everyone. The variety I grew and was trying so hard to remember was Black Seaman. I made garden labels for all the tomatoes that year and remember writing the 'green shoulders' description on it. It is supposed to have green shoulders! I just did a search for the medium sized black tomatoes on Tatiana's database, because that is about the only think I remembered.

Someone on a different forum was wondering what was causing the yellow shoulders on his tomatoes when they hadn't don't that earlier this year. So that likely isn't a genetic trait, but a problem with watering or deficiency or something else.

Thanks again.

Yeah, I was wondering myself what is causing yellow shoulders on new variety I grew this year Bychiy Lob- ox forehead- it started ripening with orange tones and yellow shoulders, I thought I might have had wrong seeds for what is supps to be red tomato. But waiting long enough changed color to red. Great tomato BTW.
