Lucky Cross segregates

cdntomato · May 7, 2011

Craig, I'm growing, albeit belately, this year for the first time in a while. Found old seeds from you and was planning to do some work with them. Any thoughts? Suggested direction for selection?

Have old F1, F2, F3 dwarf project seeds, Ray's Galina crosses, my own crosses plus a lengthy list on the road to 'dehybridization'. Was working with John N. last year, in theory only unfortunately.

Trust all is well with you and yours.

Jennifer! So great to see you posting. My view - have fun and grow what interests you. I've got so many balls in the air...but interesting you mention Lucky Cross offspring, as I've decided to go back and see what else I can find - am growing 6 of the F2s from the original Brandywine X Tad cross. Growing them in relatively small pots on short stakes - going to prune ruthlessly just to get a few setting fruit clusters.
