Selfed another two F1 plants today. The one looks to be very similar to the other I selfed, the other is the runt. I'm keeping the runt around just to taste the fruit to see if it will be any different the other plants. Here are a couple pictures of F1 habit vs. Tatume. First are F1s, same age as Tatume in the 2nd picture (some younger F1s are next to the Tatume, but aren't much smaller than the other F1s). The Tatume is flowering and setting fruit, the first of which was about 4 days after the first F1. The Lemon still has not begun to flower, but Lemon is always a couple weeks later than Tatume in my garden.

How are your guy's F1 doing? Some plants will be setting second fruits soon and I've got another I cannot self tomorrow since there are no male flowers that will open on that plant tomorrow, so I plan on eating it assuming it sets.
