I agree..but IF AND ONLY IF that bland boring commercial variety was grown with care and not grown with pesticides and gassed before I eat said tomato.

I really like what you are doing Joseph but I've watched you say this and that about hybrids and heirlooms lately. And I see your points.

But...

You are using Jagodka or whatever as a basis. Is that variety a hybrid?

Your F2's are doing crazy things.

As expected...

And as a landracer you are eventually gonna see a variety that is stable and works in your environment and that will be the OP that your children/neighbors/people in your area raise for market/home/hobby.
