My maters were doing fine, even though we've in almost drought conditions right now in Texas...but now they're getting close to ripening, and something is happening to some of them. I think they are Beefsteak variety (I forgot exactly what I planted, but they look like a mutant, LOL! ), and several days before they were the perfect ripeness, they turned real squishy and pulpy like they are rotting from the inside. Any idea what the problem could be? If I pick them when there is a little green left and they are still hard, will they ripen in a sunny window?
Thanks! If you need to see a picture of the variety, just drop me an e-mail and I'll send a pic.
