I suppose as many as you have room for in the F2, I had 16 of this cross in the F2, all of them were different. I was told a minimum of 8 per selection by Tatiana who's opinion I respect. I have 12 of each of these 3 selections reduced from 24 of each that I started by choosing the most vigorous small seedlings. All of the F2 seedlings were PL as expected for these 3 selections.
I hope it's enough, I think it will be to give a decent choice in which to carry through to the F4.
