Boy oh boy did reporting on these get away from me in 2019. I grew 1 F1 and 5 F2s. The F2s were in general rather similar, all orange-ish, like the F1, except 1 was much more red. The fruits were all tasty but nothing was knock your socks off incredible--I guess I'm a tough judge. One issue with the F1 in 2018 was it put on tons of tomatoes but was somewhat susceptible to foliage fungal issues. In 2019 the F1 and all the F2 exhibited similar behavior, good early flushes of fruit, then susceptible to foliage issues and production really dropped off a cliff. I did not save seed from these in 2019, as I found nothing especially unique or remarkable. I'll continue to grow some F2s going forward, although I don't know if I'll devote as much of my limited indeterminate space to them. Just wanted to drop an update for anyone interested.
