I have pulled Sara Black and Amazon Chocolate today. Both stems at the bottom were infected. Brownish inside.
For Amazon Chocolate I used the same batch of seeds 3 years in a row. All died right after setting some fruit. I am able to pick small green tomatoes. I believe I have bad batch of seeds.
For Sara Black I have one batch of seeds that were not true and/or died too soon (from e-bay) and another new one from Mark. I grew last year seeds from Mark, they were big loaded and delicious. This year I decided to give a chance to both. Sara Black from Mark has big tomatoes and there are at least a dozen of them. I will be picking first ripe very soon.
Mark, thank you again. That shows you how important it is to have good batch of seeds.
