Ananas Noir x Sungold F3
This continues to be a great tasting, and very early line for me. So many good genes in the mix.
L 7-1 This is the ONE. One of the earliest big tomatoes I grew this last summer. Really good, classic "black" tomato taste. Pretty sweet too. Goes forward for sure. The others - FY 4-3. A nice, sweet, pink. FY 4-4 L 7-9 L 7-10 T 4-1(top) T 4-2 |

I'd be happy to send you some seeds for free if you'd be willing to send me some back from your grow-outs.

I now have a policy to automatically click on any thread that PaddyMc starts with two tomato names and an 'x' in the title. I love the eye candy!
Thanks Paddy. Beautiful |

I see crowns arising today... yay
Is there anything specific you are looking for? traits that you are wanting to develop? color, size, taste specific? how do you want the seeds saved that you get back?

The L 7-1 looks intriguing. Do you have a pic of it before slicing?

Wow
I would have thought crossing with Sungold would give smaller fruit - are these F3's all from one large fruited F2 plant?

Sorry for dumb question. What is the meaning of letter/number labels? L 7-9 and 10 look interesting ... and delicious.
