I also grew Galahad this season. I planted it late, and it did very well. It has great taste -- definitely on the sweet side. It even tastes good when under-ripe. Typical size was 8-9 oz. It held up quite a bit better to Septoria than my OP, but still eventually lost a lot of foliage. (I did not spray this year.) It was highly crack resistant. Zero splitting. And it had little to no sun scald. It had two issues -- 1) I had BER growing it in a 10-gallon grow bag. And 2) It's production period was only a month. It is definitely determinate, about 4' tall and not very bushy. Overall, this one is worth the cost of the hybrid seeds.

I will most definitely grow it again. At the current time, most sellers are out of Galahad. Presumably, that will change over the winter. It is an AAS winner, and those tend to be popular with seed buyers. Attached is a picture of mine from August 26. (Sorry for the picture on its side. I tried several tricks to get it correct, but every time it ended sideways.)
