Looking Good!

Will be curious to taste them if you're bringing any to Remy's! I'm sure there would be allot of us similarly curious...hint, hint, nudge, nudge, hint!

Hey T'addict,

Long time no talk. Hope all is well.

I'd be curious to know the taste of Fairytale. I'm only growing 2 greens this year and both are sharp and acidic, unlike previous years when they were sweet and pleasant to the tongue. It may be an off year but I think I may have bad seed for Cherokee Green (from a commercial supplier), it seems to be a yellow bi-collar. The other, Spears Tennessee Green.

Sorry, I don't want to hijack this thread. So, please let us know the taste of your new creation, Fairytale.

I've noticed the same thing with my greens this year Neo.. I think weather conditions have so much to do with taste. Fairytale was light and juicy.. not too sweet but I think that is the weather. Since it is an F1.. I know there is a lot of room for improvment when segregating.
