Getting started hybridizing tomatoes

[willyb]

Hello all,

I am not new to tomatoes and have been a seed saver for years. I have had good luck with saving F1 seeds, the only difference I usualy see is less vigor.

This year I would like to have some fun cross pollenating. I am in Z3a and have a small greenhouse. Not sure what I want, but for starters something like big flavour, mid season, average to large fruits in that order.

Can any offer me some advice to get going from the plants that I have started? I have a mix of OP and F1. Still time for me to start more if needed.

Thanks,

Brad
