Sorry to hear they're hitting you Bill. I still haven't germinated tomatoes as I wait out the spring thrips this year.
I've been transplanting volunteers as they come up all over and have placed them in-ground, some have fared really well--I suspect they are progeny of Bella Rossa and a few other TSWV resistant varieties I planted last year.
Others not so much, I've had to pull more than half of the volunteers, all TSWV, so waiting out the thrips was indeed the right strategy, as my season is long.
I bit the bullet and got TSWV resistant varieties from Johnny's this year:
-Granadero
-BHN-1021
-Plum Regal
I'll let you guys know how they do in my thrip-laden garden.
