So when I see one seed company advertise Cherokee Carbon as an F1, does it mean it came from a seed saved from Cherokee Carbon classified as a Hybrid. (their babies as a result) Are these Hybred babies considered the F1 they refer to?
If so, how do they generally fare compared to the seed classified as Hybrid. I read some articles saying the F! seeds are generally stronger, but F2 etc. are not. Is this true?
Yet then I read that you generally need to grow out 8 or 9 generations in order to get a stable plant. These two statements seem to contradict each other.
Do we have any tomato baby experts here?
Anyone care to direct me to the best vendor for a reliable Cherokee Carbon seed. Not sure which seed/vendor to trust now. Which is more favorable. One advertised as a Hybrid or one advertised as a F1?
