The disease part makes me not plant it anymore unfortunately, starts very well but just doesn't get far.
This is my experience also; except I maybe get 1 tomato per plant if I'm lucky. I've tried growing multiple plants (containers, earthboxes).

It isn't even limited to NBD either, it is ANY plant with rugose leaves. Megabite, Totem, Bush Beefstake.

Mine start out beautiful, but the plant is tight and the leaves get so leathery. For those of you in hot, humid environments, how are you successful with this?
