Oh man I hope that cross works. Two of my favorites combined. I'll certainly be glad to try the F-2 seeds if you have any.

The three plants that i have growing are doing really well and each clump has lots of flowers with some now with fruit.
My father has one plant in a glass house and is far more advanced than mine. Coming on well |

They are a typical hybrid as in really vigorous growing and i also recon they'll be very productive as well.

The plant you show in Post #21 is potato leaf. I'm assuming that's an F2 plant. Did you also grow out any regular leaf F2 plants?

Travis - It looks RL to me? If you look at the pictures I posted of the young F1 plants on page 1, you can see that they doesn't look entirely RL,
but they are defiantly not PL. Papavic on another forum told me that his Brandywine x Neves Azorean Red F1 plants, had the exact same leaf shape as the ones in my picture. Richard - Thanks for posting, I think I will have to grow a F1 plant or two in addition to the F2's The F1's should be red when ripe. |
