F1 seeds

I don't think there are any F1 seeds I couldn't do without. There are a couple I'd miss.

I think F1 sweetcorn. I did grow some, from the organic catalogue, that were open pollinated and they tasted fine, not quite so sweet. I saved seeds once from them and they were good too. But the next time with saved seeds they were awful. They must have crossed with the farmers maize that he always grows in the field next to my plot so I don't save from them any more. I could try sowing very early to beat his flowering but would be a lot of hastle. Real seeds have one I wouldn't mind trying, bit dear though if you can't save the seeds like me.

Also sweetheart cabbage are as they sound, sweet and tasty and I got those from T&M in a seed sale at the local GC. Bought 2 packets which should last me about 8 years at current rate.

I have a few butternut F1 but Waltham are perfectly good and I think I'll stick with them in future.
