What variety is this tomato with long, milky green branches?
I planted black krim tomato seeds and one of them came out like this:
Other black krim plants are very different. This has rounded leaves, long branches and is somehow milky green color. Does anyone know what it could be? Thank you!

I'm afraid with over 20k tomato breeds and striking similarities among many of them (with crosses possible), there's not enough information for others to know what kind of tomato this is. Even if it had fruit that looked just like a particular breed's fruit, it would be a guess at best.
If the seeds were all supposed to be from Black Krim, then it's possible that one of them (or else all the others) were cross-pollinated, or that both groups were crossed by different tomatoes. It's also possible that it's a mutant.
It's also possibly a stray seed from another kind of tomato, which may have been mixed up with the Black Krim seeds.

I believe it is a stray seed because it is quite different form black krim. I even suspect it could be a determinate variety since it is more stocky with longer branches. It also bruises dark green if I touch the stem; imgur.com/TsDcu8C

I'm afraid with over 20k tomato breeds and striking similarities among many of them (with crosses possible), there's not enough information for others to know what kind of tomato this is. Even if it had fruit that looked just like a particular breed's fruit, it would be a guess at best.
If the seeds were all supposed to be from Black Krim, then it's possible that one of them (or else all the others) were cross-pollinated, or that both groups were crossed by different tomatoes. It's also possible that it's a mutant.
It's also possibly a stray seed from another kind of tomato, which may have been mixed up with the Black Krim seeds.
