OK, I did the math of a huge square chart (Pareesi squares?) and worked out the odds. (I enjoy the math). Also juggled the numbers and figure I can evaluate 55 plants this summer, if I use a shoe horn & a cooperative mother.

Theoretically, on the average, from 55 plants I would get 13 large-fruited (large or dwarf) plants. More if I'm lucky, less if I'm not. That does not allow for small fruited varieties to live long enough to taste the fruit. Just evaluate for fruit size, rip 'em out if it's small, and re-plant late seedlings in their place.

I'm so psyched!
