I've pretty much reverted to growing hybrids due to improved disease resistance and overall fruit quality in my growing zone. Tomatofest doesn't sell hybrid seeds.


I also seem to remember the Hawaiian Pineapple didn't store well after it ripened.
Heirloom Vegetables have never been genetically altered, and better nutrients to your body. At the same times farming secrets and knowledge to farm them are very important. That's why I sell out early. It's hard work but must be done. I sel out of my Hawaiian Pineapple seeds early and I sell out my Hillbillies fresh produce as it is such a Beautiful Tomato many don't care about the name.
