Tomato Mosaic is ToMV, not TMV
As I've said, I heat treat my seeds almost without exception. It is my personal 'phytosanitary' standard. I am not recommending pro or con, just discussing heat treatment as a subject. 
My only opinion on what is recommended for other gardeners is ... I would not lump other gardeners all in the same group and say what's good for one is good for all.  |
oh my mistake ..I was thinking hot water bath treatment .....
Where do you get the parameters / techniques/ tables for dry heat method ?...
this is indeed a different ball of wax !
As many sources of seed can travel quite a long geographical way, they may have diseases that are not " the usual " for the new grow area.
Some how even ToMV could be hidden in seeds to an unsuspecting grower???
