Nine "pot luck" bush tomato plants from something that fell of and went rotten last year that are covered in fruit and starting to ripen. I didn't have room for them but what could I do? I crammed three in each of three sheep lick buckets that I had holed.
17 mange tout from seed that had fallen off the last few plants while I was waiting to harvest seed. I know they don't like being transplanted, but even if only half survive they are going to be cropping just ahead of the others I just planted in the tunnel.
Have you benefitted from not using F1 seed (other than seed saving ) safe in the knowledge that any offspring will all produce true to parentage?
