levad, Yes, that OP Big Beef from TomatoFest is stabilized. Someone sent me a PM to let me know TomatoFest has been offering it for awhile and that it's been grown out for at least 7 years, and is very similar to the F1 (the hybrid version). I'll have to check them out.
Lee, That Tasmanian Chocolate does sound like a real winner. The dwarf variety I grew that was weakest for me (although it was indoors), was Stumpy for some reason. And honestly, I was thinking out loud when I started this thread. One of those 'what if's". Besides using it in the dwarf project I was also thinking it would be a good one for dehybridizing to have it year to year from homegrown seed. But that's already been taken care of! I'm late to the party...
