RL vs. PL African Queen??
I’ve been growing whole seed packs for our master gardener tomato sale. One thing I noticed this year was RL plants for varieties that were supposed to be PL.
I’m assuming that if there were only a few RL, it could have been an error during the seeding — lots of volunteers, too much chatting, not paying attention.
But for African Queen, the discrepancy caught my attention only when there were 3 PL and 10 RL plants left. So the question is, should we sell those 10 plants next week as African Queen RL, or give them away as «unknown variety »?

Re: RL vs. PL African Queen??
If it were me I would sell all 13 of them as a mystery tomato. There are just too many off type plants in there to have much confidence that any of them could be African Queen.
