Looks like an early one

This photo was taken 89 days after seeding, 37 days after transplanting. It is the earliest F2 plant from the cross [Stupice x (Spudakee x Novikov's Giant)F2]. I got the "SpudG" F2 seed from Bill Jeffers last year, the cross w/ Stupice was mine. The SpudG F2 plant was the earliest large fruited type I grew last year - this is at least 10 days earlier. I don't have Stupice this year for comparison, but SunSugar, Bloody Butcher, Ben Gantz and Kimberly are all pea size or smaller. This early one is also the only one in the family with fasciated fruit.

Wow, that is quite large for when you seeded it. If you ever want others to grow out these early crosses of yours, I would be interested. We have a very short growing season here.

frogsleap -

Nice looking tomato, and the parents are all early or fairly early. I wonder if it will remain as pleated?
