Orlov Yellow

[amideutch]

Here are some pictures of two Orlov Yellows I grew this year and seeds were from Tania. First the plant was PL and grown in a 7 gal container. Fruit set was poor due to late set out, hail damage and high temps during the blossom stage. I'm getting 6 fruit off the plant which is understandable due to the previously described growing conditions.
The first 4 pictures was the first fruit to ripen and weighed around 350 grams. The pictures were taken indoors under a fluorescent light probably in the cool white temperature range.
The last 2 pictures are of a fruit I picked yesterday that is not quite ripe yet. It weighed in at 456 grams (1 US pound). I took these photo's on my radiator in front of the window in natural light this AM.
Taste was very good but then again when you are using KBX as the standard so are the rest of the yellows when compared to KBX in my opinion. Ami
