Wow just checked out your link Fred and that vendor has no shame. Oh they also sell the "famous hungarian black krim". What a joke.

Have my four lines going. Hoping to step up all my seedlings to larger pots this weekend. Will plant out in a few weeks to Earthboxes. Left to right are GbT1, GbT2, GbT3, and in the smaller cup GbT4. These get full sun during the day and come inside at night.

Does anyone have any updates for Fred??
He was kind enough to send us all seeds and there have been no updates so far.
I'm sure there are ripe fruits to be shown. I'm late with updating too, sorry for that, Fred.

But I will write up a review shortly, as I'm waiting for GBT3 to ripen one fruit so I can compare all four at the same time.
I've tasted all four already,and like them all. The surprise was GBT4 as it has significantly larger fruits than the other three. Other three all have that distinctive torpedo shaped fruits and this one is more round.
I'll go and find some pics right now...
