Anton (F1) is powdery mildew resistant hybrid. First year performance was ok. 2011 performance was spectacular in the rainy summer from hell. Because of excessive rains in August, my plants behaved as if it was spring again and Anton pumped out zuke afer zuke...loading my freezer with an ample supply. It was only after temps dropped significantly that they stopped producing. Flavor excellent. A+++ for powdery mildew resistance.
