Nice Frogsleap can't wait to see the results.
A little summarry so far as color.
For 6 F1s we see a ratio of 4:2 Red to Orange(Bicolor).
3 Reds (a and b) and 2 Oranges (a and b) have thus far been taken to the F2.
Frogsleap has harvested red c seed and we will see results on the F2 later this fall.
What we know we can get, so far from each line in the F2 gen.
Red a- 7 Red (all large globe or distorted globe cherries), 3 Brown(2 large, one of which has beef steak tendancies, the other a super dark sungold sized cherry), 3 orange cherries, 1 Orange/Pink bullets cherry sized
Red b- No record yet
Red c- No record yet
Orange a- 1 Orange Bicolor(cherry), 1 Pink(mini beefsteak), dusty orange w/ brown/green highlights, a medium orange, a deep orange w/ faint red bicolor just below the calyx, and a medium red.
Orange b- 1 Orange Bicolor(up to 3 oz beef steak), 1 Red globe
I have another dozen or so Red a plants in sandiego, and will get to take a look at these this afternoon. Last month I saw these and noticed at least one definately had larger beefsteak type fruit(this one the gardners killed). So will soon get a better idea of how easy Browns are to find.
Also Have another 12 or so Orange bs in pots at my place which are just starting to set flowers.
