A PL pink is not a tomato that I would reject, no matter its lack of beauty.Ken4230 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 09, 2024 11:31 amThis has happened to me several times, now I carry a magic marker and mark every tomato and pepper as I harvest them. I use the cheap vinyl window blinds for markers and use a paint pen. Just the fact of starting something new can be intimidating to a new gardener, and sometimes to an old one. I'm speaking mainly for myself here. Been doing this for many years and learn something new every year, usually from mistakes that I have made.bower wrote: ↑Thu Apr 21, 2022 7:09 am I had something similar happen to me one year, where the seeds I expected to be RL were all PL. Regret to say that, in spite of my self assurance, I later concluded it was a seed labeling error! These things can and do happen when you're saving a lot of varieties' seeds. One way it can happen is if the fruit from two plants looks similar - then the carefully labeled jar or dish was mismatched in the first place - probably the source of my error.
Gave a friend several different plants one year. He called and said that one was too ugly to eat so I went and collected several. I grow them every year and have no idea what they are. Good tasting pink PL tomato. I saved them as: John's Ugly PL.
Ken,
If you'd like John's Ugly PL dispersed far and wide, please save and send me several hundred seeds.
