Re: Dan's 172X-F2
that is what I read on my scale ie not quite an ounce. Wry grin they look so big next to the other cherry tomatoes I have I was shocked by the lack of weight. Of course the one I picked today from another 10 inch plant is 29 grams.

Re: Dan's 172X-F2
Back to these this year. I have 4 seedlings from seeds of the E4 plant from 2020. My notes says this one tasted like a mild beefsteak and was a potato leaf plant. Hoping for some good things but also want to use pollen from one of these to cross to Lucinda this year for an answer to the silly question of what does a carrot leaf potato leaf plant look like. That one will not be concentrating on size but rather on producing a carrot leaf that we know for sure is also a potato leaf. Yeah this is curiosity more then new varieties but hey it will be a fun search.

Re: Dan's 172X-F2
Not a silly question at all, you may invent something totally new. It sounds a little that deeply cut and broad leaves would be the opposites and cancel each other but as these are different genes, the mechanism behind could also be different and have additional impact.an answer to the silly question of what does a carrot leaf potato leaf plant look like.
You should invent a proper name for the phenotype. Porrot leaf? Cartato leaf?

Re: Dan's 172X-F2
Went back to these again this year. They are up to F3 now. Found a zip lock bag with two coffee filters with seeds stuck to them that were labeled and a lot of loose seeds in the bag so I have a mix of known and unknown parentage in my seeding tray.
These were planted on 9 Feb 2024 and this is the tray before I potted the seedlings up. Notice how small the seedlings are in the one pellet? Those were from a filter labeled as E4. They didn't show the first sprout until 6 March whereas the rest of the pellets sprouted by 20 Feb.

These are from after that first potting up:
the E4 seedlings next to one of the seedlings from the loose seeds
these sprouted late by spindledreams, on Flickr
My two largest seedlings Purple stick is from the F6 coffee filter, white stick is from the loose seeds.

And the whole tray of seedlings yep there are 13 at this stage...
