Post #6178368

Purchased these tomato seeds at my local nursery this week, based on the description on the package of the flavor, but can't find any info about disease resistance. Nothing on the package, nothing online, even called Burpee themselves (the answer there is pending). Had some problems with several diseases last year in my heirlooms, so only growing hybrids this year to break the cycle. Therefore, need to know what this tomato is (I'm assuming Summer Choice is some marketing name), and its disease resistance. Anyone grown these? Thanks\


Next Day: Ok, heard back from Burpee's Customer Service that they can find NO info on this seed...it is "new." Ok, tomato growers...where do I go from here? No company introduces a seed without knowing all about it. Who do I call now?
