On DTM = Days To Maturity. What is "maturity" . To me it is whem plant is grown to size that can flower, etc.
I have seen "DTH" = Days To Harvest. Now that make more sense to me than DTM.
YMMV :-)

I think DTM and DTH came from demand of people wanting an answer for how long it would take.
I like the way Tomato Growers Supply does it.
You can look up early season mid season and late season color and sizes.
I stay away from all late season plants and concentrate on early and a few mid season plants.
This really helps sorting out what I want.
