Romovaya Baba - from Shawn's seed share - this is info I've found ......
mid indet green round 250-600g Russian
Great flavor!
Romovaya Baba * is a new variety, bred in Russia in 2013.
The plants are vigorous and tall, well suited for outdoor cultivation.
The tomatoes are flat, slightly ribbed. The skin is thin but firm, slightly shiny, separates easily from the ripe flesh. When ripe, the tomatoes get a beautiful yellow-green color and a light melon aroma. The taste is harmonious, sweet and sour.
Medium maturity.

Carneal Tiger - According to the Sample Seed Shop it is a pink with orange stripes. Nothing further was said.

I received some Marge's Polish Pride tomato. I planted 2 seeds. One came up as a potato leaf, and one regular leaf. From what I read, it is supposed to be Potato Leaf. Which is more likely, an odd seed mixed in, or this variety can have either leaf?

It's most likely either a stray seed or the seeds came from the MMMM and most people do not bag their blossoms so it may be a crossed seed.

I may have given you F5 or F6 seed, which is not entirely stable. Most of my named varieties will sometimes throw off a different leaf type, and sometimes a pink will produce a red or a red will produce a pink. I hope you keep it going. I could use another PL heart, if that's what the fruit shape turns out to be.
I Up potted my seedlings, and my Miss Scarlets are half Potato Leaf, half Regular Leaf. I kept both to see what happens.

So, i have "2019" documented on my spreadsheet, but i don't remember where i got that information. Most likely it was written on the seed packet.

The behaviour of light means you observe me as i was then, and not as I am now.
I cannot change history, so I do hope i gave you a good impression of myself
