Oh boy. Guess I better plant a few more flats.

Combining high brix with excellent tomato flavor has been a bit difficult. So far, I've seen very sweet fruit in the F2 or F3, but it segregates the next generation indicating some of the genes for high brix are dominant and others are recessive. I got 1 F5 plant out of about 300 grown that exhibits high brix and outstanding tomato flavor.
