Dan's 150x F2
150x F2 has a really long family tree- Dan sent it but it is too long to summarize. I love doing an F2 grow out because results can be so varied. All the pictures below are from 150x F2 seeds. I thought it may be helpful to new micro growers to see some of the huge variations that can happen.
I started 150 seeds Nov 1. Now I have narrowed down to about 7 plants with desirable traits. I see three different leaf types. One plant is a multiflora determinate like I have never seen before-with the tomatoes sticking straight up. Most are not multiflora.
Is anyone else working with 150x?

Re: Dan's 150x F2
Am growing out 150x as well as his 113xF3
Unfortunately, I'm growing in my partially insulated garage, with very inconsistent temps. Right now it's 54F out there.
I transplanted most of these into these pots around 11/24 and some are just now flowering. Here are two of them. The 113x's are flowering like crazy
Tape measure for scale. Please ignore my mess of a garage.

Hi Sean-
Hey there are things hung up in your garage! That's a plus. Our leaf types look similar even if yours are a little cold right now. What do your markings T2C3 and T2C6 mean? I like your idea of recording mile markers right on each tag.

Re: Dan's 150x F2
I've since moved them out to the greenhouse. I may have to dance them back in to the garage every night. I trialed keeping them out last night with a space heater set to 60F... it ran all night but the temps stayed +20F above outside (we got down to about 26F). That will get expensive.
The T2C3-7, etc mean:
Tray 2, Column 3, row 7 (counting from left to right and bottom to top)
I have a spreadsheet I documented both trays, which varieties were in which "cell", and the days-to-germ for each. This gives me traceability back to the seed sown
