What kind of seeds have you saved and what is it that you want to achieve that they haven't done in the past six years?

I have been experimenting with the Prudens Purple or some call it Purple Prudence. I mainly zero in on San Marzanos, Romas, and Paste as we put up a lot of tomato sauce each year. We do several salad tomatoes that we have 6th season seeds, Abe Lincoln, and Box Car Willie. I'm just trying to get healther stronger plants. Trying different soils and organic applications, but never seem to see much of a difference. Had a case of Bud End Rot 2 years ago and got through it finally, with Epson salt solution. Seems to be a yearly thing now. Any advise? Bob
