Orange Minsk and Claude Brown's Yellow Giant questions

BigdaddyJ · July 20, 2010

OK, just picked a bunch of Orange Minsk from the SAME plant. I know they are days away from fully ripe but it's the shape I want to discuss. As you can see the top two are big lobed beefstakey looking. The middle two are big hearts. The bottom one hasn't made up it's mind yet? LOL Is this normal for Orange Minsk?

My Claude Brown Yellow Giants ARE Giants but they're NOT Yellow! Looks like I have a cross. I KNOW I didn't mess the seeds up. I have two plants of it and they are the tallest of my 31 tomato plants at 8' and 7.5' and it's only July 20! My Q....They are not fully ripe either. I'm guessing two more days. But do you think they will be considered a red or pink based on this pic?
