\ud83c\udf45 Quick take:<\/strong> Pork Chop<\/strong> is an acclaimed indeterminate<\/strong> yellow striped beefsteak bred by Brad Gates<\/strong> (Wild Boar Farms, California). Vines produce 8-12 oz (220-350 g) ribbed, oblate fruits that start lime-green with dark stripes before maturing into a glowing golden-amber with metallic green streaks. Growers praise its complex, refreshing citrus sweetness, noting that peak flavor requires patience: fruits must be picked dead-ripe and slightly soft to the touch. \u00a0Full summary \u2193<\/a><\/div>\n

Seeds came from Valery Popenko. First time growing this variety. Ran it both inside the greenhouse and outdoors in open ground.For me, it matured right around mid-season with very solid yields. Loved the taste: sweet with a very pleasant, refreshing citrusy tang. Flavor stayed consistent throughout the entire season.<\/p>\n

One of the most striking tomatoes in the greenhouse \ud83d\udc4dThe fruits start out lime-green with darker stripes, eventually ripening to rich yellow. In my garden, it leaned more toward late-season. Great producer with delicious, juicy fruits.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Such a gorgeous slicer: tasty, nicely balanced flavor, though personally I found myself wishing for just a little more sweetness. Mine’s growing out in the garden.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

For me, it turned out plenty sweet, but only when it was dead-ripe on the vine: you could practically say it felt soft to a gentle touch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
