Andrey, many thanks for great history lesson!. Please post more information about your country every time you're so inclined. Interesting that Belarusians have close ties with Polish and Lithuanians. . Jimbo

Default Talladega Hyb

Talladega Hyb was a great determinate. It seems to have gone away. Anyone know if hybrid seed is available?

Dave, I'm growing it too. There is a stabilized version of Early Cascade OP. I bought mine from The Seed Kingdom. I do wish the hybrid was still available with the disease resistance, though.

Honest politicians.

No really some of the animals that are on their way out.
Not tomatoes but it makes me sad.

Patio Prize F1 (IIRC) was a patio/container tomato from Petoseeds. Similar to Patio Hybrid, but with slightly larger fruit. Regular Patio is a pretty good substitute, and of course now we have all the project dwarfs. Patio grows well in a 12" container. Slightly larger is even better -- in this case, a larger plant with more and slightly larger fruit.
