Need some advice on growing Sara's Galapagos

cythaenopsis · June 25, 2014

I searched around but couldn't find the thread (searched on "currant" by your username). I will make a point of reading up on currant focused articles though.

I'm a little concerned about cross pollination now, seeing as I'm growing it about 4~5 feet away from another variety of heirloom tomatoes. I wonder if the currant is different enough as to not be capable of cross pollinating with an heirloom of considerably different character. Or should I just forget about trying to save seed this year?
