Hi Larry,

I saved tons of F3 seeds. I did grow out one F3 plant the fall after this plant grew but it was really wet fall season and i had a lot of other plants and just lost interest in it. The main thing this plant was good for was sharing tons of tomatoes with our neighbors who loved them. They were average on taste... The original tomato that the seed came from was a vine ripe hybrid from walmart that was sold on the vine and was a little smaller than a baseball.

I would be happy to send you some F3 seeds if you want to try it. Below are some more pictures but they just dont do it justice. It kep producing and producing. If you could see between all the leaves the tomatoes were really heavy in there and you can see all the one on the lower branches. It looked like a grape vine more than a tomato plant... lol.






Sorry, had some problems posting photos and deleted the sideways pictures.

Ginny
