Terhune - first year growing it- From the rains I thought I was going to lose the 2 plants. I was fighting some type of mold and wilt and dealing with 90% blossom drop in the beginning of the season. After the rains stopped, it started to set a nice amount of fruit so just now I'm starting to get ripe ones. I find the taste to be wonderful. Just how I expect a pink variety to taste. I find it to be smooth with the right amount of sweetness. No acidic taste. I grew Earl's Faux as well for the 2nd year and I find that one to have a little bit a twang to it compared to Terhune. Terhune I can bite right into and eat it plain. Earl's Faux has to go into a salad or sandwich. With the right growing conditions, I would expect Terhune to be a real winner in the garden here.
