"Blue Gold Berries" and "Blue Gold" came into the swap from different sources. The BG description says slicer, no description on BGB.

I don't think I sent both to any one participant.

I have grown both.

My guess is that the BlueGoldBerries is listed as Gold Berries on Brads website.

Blue Gold is a slicer from Brad (WildBoarFarms). There is a description for that one as well on his website.

I would suggest the same having grown both as well.

edit to add:Should read Pink Cadillac. For some reason showing a blank page to edit to, a lot of edit quirks on this site.

Also to add: I've found the answer to Pink Cadillac, Tatiana says it's a Tormato creation. Doubly interested now, but I'm running out of room. The MegaMarv is for sure and Dr. Lyle looks wonderful. I need more yard!

Hey patty b, you mailed in some killer big tomato varieties!

Of Brutus, Istra, and Red Penna. Which might do best in a container, in Broomfield, Colorado?

No help here as I have never grown in containers...maybe someone else can say. Of those 3, Istra probably produced more. Patty

Does anyone have info on Kellogg's Best Pepper? Searching here just brings up an orange tomato that many of us know and love, and Google gives me strange recipes that include corn flakes.

The sender's name is on the label, so I can send a PM if needed, but thought I'd post here to leave a trail for the next person looking for this one.

I would like to hear more about Meaty Russian from anyone who has grown it. Tania's lists it as a slicer, but the seed packet I received has it labeled as a paste. There are no pictures of cut fruit so I'm wondering how meaty and how juicy this one is. Thanks in advance!

And here's question #2 from me:

I received a packet of F2 Burpee Super Sauce seeds. If the person who sent them is reading this thread, I would love to know if you have grown these out yourself? And if you did, how close were they to the F1?
