I have some tomato seedlings growing, a fairly generic variety. They were shown in a mixture of compost and soil and all grown in the same conditions (in a warm window then in a greenhouse when the weather improves, then back to the windowsill when the weather went unexpectedly cold again). I think the spell in the greenhouse has hardened them up a bit, they're not so floppy now and as keen to grow towards the light which is good.
One seedling is growing much better and than the others though. This isn't a cross I've made and the variety isn't an F1 so i don't see why it should be growing different from the others really, it's much more vigorous.
My question is if i saved seeds from this plant would i get an "elite line" of this variety which grows better than the standard variety or is this just some fluke, some chance happening?
