Wow, seeing GGWT sliced up sure sold it for me, will have to get some seeds for that and squeeze some space for it!

I'm suprised nobody has mentioned the striking similarity to Pink Berkley Tie Dye or Large barred Boar. Is it different in taste and growth habit to either one of those?

I've read one report that likened the flavor to PBTD.
And, PBTD is the only striped tomato, that I've tried, that I like. |

I like the name Girl Girl's Weird Thing. What else would you call a mutation of Green Zebra?
I think it looks really good. I'll bet it is tasty. |

I am growing this now (Thanks Marsha)
The plant is probably my tallest over 7 feet. it got hit with blossom end rot bad in the beginning (new pro mix in an earthbox) and then some (bug issues) It is quite a tasty and cool looking tomato I will post some pics there are some big ones that are just about to ripe |

1) PBTD had more pink in it, GGWT more green in its coloration 2) Taste very similar 3) PBTD succumbed to disease earlier in the season.Last plant standing and producing in one of my plots was a GGWT, out of ~50 plants and ~ 20 varieties |
