In looking at my seed offer it is also quite difficult to see who had requested the seeds because most people did not respond in the thread, they just PM'd me directly. I in return PM'd them when I sent their seeds out to them. I did keep records so I do know every person that I sent seeds to via my seed offer and the dates as well. I did also send in seeds to the 2015 MMMM. I will have to ask Gary if anyone else sent in seeds for Daniel Burson.

mrdoitall's seeds were sent out on 3/9/16. Daniel Burson seeds were the only seeds that I sent out on that day. Therefore the bag of DB was the only bag that I had open on that day. On this end, there was no seed mix up due to multiple seed packs being open so it may be a cross or an error on his end. We will see if anymore RL leafed plants show up.

I myself will be starting 20-25 seeds of DB. I will be doing this to check the leaf type and to have a few plants for myself.

So you are starting 25 seeds of DB, well here's what I'm going to do.

I had made out a list of the ones that I wanted Freda to grow for me in the backyard, and have changed that list several times ,and Rob was here today,he's the one who raises my seedlings for me.So we went to the back room and I pullled out all the ones I wanted seedlings for,he wanted seeds for others I didn't want, we both wanted some of the same ones,and so tomorrow I have the daunting taske of packing up one pack for seeds for both of us for each of those,different packs for ones just for me,and different packs just for him.

All to say that DB is one we both want,I talked him into it,so this will be the first time,other than when Bill had it in that experimental section and I saw pictures in the Fall feedack thread andcomments,that I'll actually be able to taste it.

And yes,I'm using the seeds that Bill sent to me,so it's all good.

One problem though since someone sent me something he had bred,wanted me to see what I thought of it, so I started thinking about dropped fruits,and birds making off with the seeds,or deer or racooons or whatever making off with some seeds and why am I so woried?

Because he not only warned me, but he said he trusted me completely that no seeds would go astray and I told him he could trust me.I explained this to Rob who will be raising the seedlings and he said of course I could trus him, since if he ever let loose with the seeds he said he knew I would NEVER give him any seeds forhimself again.

A done deal,we shook hands,and both laughed.

Carolyn, actually Rob is a Tville member.For several years he sold seedlings and fruits at different farmer's markets, but is doing something different now,but still wants to grow some tomatoes for family and friends.
