Thanks for growing them! Please make sure to save as many seeds as you can for Kapidag Red. As you know, germination rates were low. I only had a few plants last season. Then we had a terrible drought (we don't have irrigation in the whole field, yet). Then I accidentally ran over the plants with my tractor

We are getting a heat wave this week and I'm interested to see how the taste develops.
I think that my Kopek will be blushing this week too. With the shape of the fruit, I can see why the name means "dog balls" in Turkish!
Waiting on the Tekin's Bulgarian Pink too.
Thanks for the seeds Chance!
