I tried these tomatoes twice and did not find them anymore resistant to early blight than any other variety I grew. I was much happier with Sunbeam, Big Beef, and the heirloons that I grew. JTO was not worth the high price of the seeds |

I did not find this variety any more resistant early leaf black spot than any other variety I have tried. This summer was extremely wet, cloudy and cool, however. The tomatoes I did get, were very tasty, nice sized, good for slicing, and on sandwiches. I will give it another try next year. |
