Default Last mini haul of the year

And they are all Goose Creek (pink). I'm going to grow and sample Goose Creek (red) next year along with the pink version and see which is better for my taste.

Hi Damon,

Your Goose Creek look exactly like mine.



Will be interesting in your next year grow-out.

I think posting those pictures is cruel and unusal punishment for those of us that have not had a good tomatoe in weeks. You really know how to hurt a girl.

Of the ones in my last haul, Goose Creek (red) held on the counter the longest-the last was eaten just last week.

The taste was just ok for me, but I prefer larger, sweeter, meatier in general. Never grew the pink cultivar-and probably never will.
