Thanks Travis,
Yea the F1 I saved seed from is definitely indeterminate fruit has been spread out in till the recent heat caused the plant to slow down setting of new fruit. The parent plants I have were all over 7 foot tall and I have had a few that the branches bent at the top of the cage so tallest would have probably been 9ft or so if the weight of the fruit had not caused it to bend the branches.
I have two 25 x 30 garden plots to grow in. One of the plots I have raised up about 5-6 ft and the lower one tends to stay damp longer. I usually grow hardier crops like beans in the lower garden but thinking of using it for the majority of the F2 starts. Kinda like a trail by fire if that makes sense. Just the lower garden has more variables as it tend to be too wet in the start of the year and the soil is not as conditioned as the upper garden is.
