From Tatiana's TOMATOBase
- F2 generation (2008): indet., regular leaf, purple/black round cherry fruit, smallest among the F2 fruits, 20 gr. average. F3 seeds saved.
- F3 generation (2009): Continues to segregate, 8 regular leaf (73%) and 3 potato leaf (27%) seedlings, but the fruit color and shape seems to be quite stable. I grew out 6 plants, 3 RL and 3 PLs. Both the taste and texture are very good. 1-1.5 oz range. Fruit size and color is very similat to the parent hybrid Purple Haze. F4 seeds saved.
- F4 generation (2010): I am growing PL2 and RL3 lines this year. PL2 seed produced 2 potato leaf and 6 regular leaf seedlings. RL3 (plum) seed produced 4 potato leaf and 6 regular leaf seedlings. The earliest fruit was on the one of the PL2 potato leaf seedlings, it was purple/black and the taste was absolutely delicious. F5 seeds saved for future growouts. I will continue selecting for potato leaf.
- F5 generation (2012): I am growing a PL line this year. All the plants produced the same fruit, and were similar in maturity and growth habit. F6 seeds saved. I think the PL line may be stabilized by now.
