I guess I am sucking hind mater with Barkeater since I am only planting F5's.

PGibbons,

I'll be planting an F1 from last years batch, an F1 from this year, an F4, and an F7 from last year.

I have never bagged, and I want to see if there was any loss in vigor or change from the F4 to F7. I will bag the F4 this year,in case it did take a wrong turn somewhere in between.

Tomstrees · March 11, 2008

Is the dehybridized version of Rampo RL or PL ?

I thought I saw pics of it being PL > ?

I know reg. Ramapo = RL

~ Tom

barkeater · March 11, 2008

They have all been regular leaf to date. If any ever came up PL, it would have to have crossed or been a seed mixup.

But then again, if Ramapo crossed with Brandywine...

lol Bark ! Thanks for the info -
I have a project I'm working on this season
that "may" compare to the cross mentioned above - more to come

Got germination in 4 days.

Ramapo F1 has arrived safely Downunder! I'll have to wait until August ready for our Spring planting. This year I'll grow Ramapo with Supersonic and Jet Star as the Hybrids.

ps Aunt Ginny's Purple has been the stand-out tomato in my patch this summer. The neighbours raved!!

Success!

Ramapo seeds have germinated!

~ Tom

**mdvpc** · March 20, 2008

Tom I got 3/4 germination-how about you?

Tomstrees · March 21, 2008

4 / 4 -

I'm really into seed saving - and these were the cleanest seed I've ever seen.

I've said it elsewhere but: you could almost see your reflection ! lol ~

Ramapo has entered the building !

My germination rate was 9 out of 10. So far plants doing very well. About 2 weeks old now I think. Jay

My Ramapo germination seems quite good. I didn't count these seeds when planting.

celestina · April 3, 2008

I have 6/6 that came up---4 of the plants have 3 cotyledons--anyone else have three cotyledons per plant?
