Backcrossing
I do a lot of crosses with wild tomatoes and it takes me a long time and a lot plants to recover size. I have been reading about back crosses and how it is best to due two back crosses minimum to recover size. Is it best to start the back cross from the f1 or select a f2 with the most recessive genes to start your back cross?
