Meanwhile you are correct you do need my Not Chocolate Stripes. That one is going to be a big seller.
Unfortunately it is an indeterminate but it does produce a lot of tomatoes and early. And you can save seeds.
Funny you mention that Marsha as I am going to try Momotaro as my pink slicer this year. I just cant get consistent production with non-hybrids. NCS sounds perfect, I don't mind indet. I just need more production and tbh it is getting to be to much work to spray 100 indet heirlooms every other day her in summer.

Looking at more det reds it looks like Amelia is a good one here (recommended by UGA/Clemson) but is mid season. I'm also looking at several here

but them being in Oregon worries me b/c cold weather Indet. tomatoes do terribly here. It may not matter for an early det. though, I just don't know.
