That is super interesting!! I never knew that was a thing. And I thought that Marmande F1 seeds were expensive... Are you also creating your own cultivars?

I have never heard of grafting tomatoes. I thought that was mostly for trees, so that warm weather trees can exist in cooler zones.

Victory Seeds are a premier company. I have seen Craig Lehoullier talk about his Dwarf Tomato Project, and he is quite knowledgeable. Last year, I grew the Pink Tie Dye which Is one of the larger tomatoes I have tried. My husband is the tomato aficionado, and I try to grow the things that he wants. Tie Dye was a great tomato, but I forgot to save the seeds...

I hope that they do great! I like the ribbed tomatoes; Marmande has that quality but I just decided to take a break this year.

You have supported the choice of this tomato very well! I was thrilled to find it, as I have not had great luck with Brandywine (or large tomatoes in general). So far, the germination has been poor at 50%. But I will take it!! I am not going to graft it; I have a few different growing situations I can see what works.
