I got my copy of Seeds N Such today. It says this is new:

I haven't found a seller yet but want to try it. I like trying various root stocks just to see how the different scions react to them.

Salt, thanks for posting that!

Last year I tried a few plants on the 106 but they all went down fast, in my mind confirming that I have V wilt. The rest were grafted onto DRO-141tx and did great. I was going to go with all DRO Stock this year, but I think I'll give the 105 a try. It's certainly cheaper than the DRO from Johnny's!

And here is the grafting thread - http://www.tomatoville.com/showthread.php?t=43633

It was for 2017, but has so much valuable info that it can probably continue on into the future.

Bill, if you hear about the 107 becoming available, please let us know.
