Default Mo cross

Where did you get the mo cross seeds? I grow super Sioux but have little luck out of the mozarks, my grandfather grew them for years.

I made the Mozark x Sioux cross myself, and subsequently have been growing out various recombinations of their traits.

I obtained the Mozark seeds from the University of Missouri, Columbia, and the Sioux seeds from, if I remember correctly, Tomato Growers Supply.

Mozark has been very good for me, but many of the MoCross recombinations have been much better.

Well then, maybe I'll just have to try making that cross myself. Growing Mozark this year but didn't start any Siux seeds yet. Maybe I'll start both for Fall..... I have been trying to find smaller vines since I'm not getting any younger.

I'm growing this one this season. It's the most dense/bushy indeterminate I've seen so far.

Hello, I have found Oxheart and Rutgers to have an acidic kick...also Neves Azorean Red. As others mentioned also, Aunt Gertie's Gold, Lime Green Salad.

Last year, it was KBX and Orange Minske. This year, I have an Orange Minske sitting on my kitchen counter waiting to confirm tomorrow if my impression last year was correct. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

Would you be interested in selling any of your mo cross seeds, I live in southwestern mo on the Arkansas line and am trying to bring back more stable varieties for this area. Would love to try yours.
