I have always grown Moneymaker as my tomatoes get greenback if I grow any
other type.

Does Shirley fall into the 'greenback resistant' category?

IIRC we've never had greenback problems with Shirley tomatoes, either
grown indoors or outside.

Pass. never had really greenbacked tomatoes. I have grown Shirley, and
Alicante, Pixie and Ailsa Craig.

Ailsa Craig does tend to remain a bit green on top sometimes, in a
sort-of apple-patterned way. Allegedly.

Monemaker is IMO like wet rags in flavour, and I won't grow them.
Alicante is a Moneymaker type, but has a very good flavour. Why not try
some of those?
