Personally, I'm more interested in PL's, as they have definitely demonstrated superior resilience in my garden. Are you cool with me just growing out 4 or 5 PL's?

tell me about this cross as an F1. round, medium, non-striped? yellow? How was the flavor and habit?
Saving only PL segregants sounds good to me. The F1 plant had round red/orange fruit with very faint stripes (typical of a gs heterozygote), fruit size was a little bigger than Green Zebra. The F2 should segregate for stripes, fruit color and size.
