[squashytomato]

i have a plant growing and it has a fair bit of fruit on but not sure when to pick it. ive had a google and cant really get an answer some sites describe it as a green tom and others say it goes yellow and green. i did pick a couple green and they tasted good but i like yellow tomato. anyone grown it before?

Green Zebra will get a yellow blush to them when ripe, but they may get too soft to keep if you let them get that far. With 'green when ripe' tomatoes, it's best to do a little squeeze test to see if ripe.

A really good green when ripe tomato is one called Grub's Mystery Green (an aussie)

They feel soft when they are ripe, and the top bit goes yellow. I grow them every year and I love ther flavour. They will never go totally yellow so don't leave them too long. They can get quite large - try them halved and grilled - fabulous! Sorry, yes, I'm a fan!
