Darth-
So... for those of us not in the know- what does a Siberian Tiger tomato look like and what makes it so special? Is it a white variety?
I tried searching for it without luck, so if you have a link I'd appreciate it.

Nice looking, Darth! Quick side question-what mix do you use to pot up?[/qu I use part promix one part top soil and one part sand. It took a while to come to this but it works great, promix alone dries out way to fast. |

This is a segregating F3 line, not a stable variety. Darth's nickname stuck, but the name belongs to a finished product some years down the road with the desired phenotype. The F1 cross was OSU Blue x Beauty King, so I expect quite a bit of segregation for fruit/skin color in this generation. Hopefully the F2 was Aft/Aft and this trait will be stable. You should be able to see anthocyanin accumulation on very young fruit if they are exposed to the sun. Siberian Tiger, one is showing more Antho than the other... |
