Akelei,

Who is the man in Switzerland selling TPS? I might know him since I spoke to a group of folks in Switzerland a few years back.

The man is Stefan (alias Steve). I tried to ask him a few things,but he dont write back. I found a posting between you an him from Summer 2011,he wrote about a BIG problem with a blight,about spraying etc. He wrote also,from 55 varieties is only one resistent to blight,but he dont subskripe this on his website. I found this posting after I ordered seeds from him. I asked also,did he prepare the seeds with TSP or hot water treatment,I'v not get an answer. Will do hot water treatment befor sowing,for sure.I hoped, I could talk or chat with him,were better for understandin in german for me.But it's o.k. I will find my way with a help from this forum.

Yes, I spent quite a bit of time with Stefan in Switzerland in '09 and my email since. He has many of my clonal varieties as well.

He would be a great help to anyone in Europe wanting to learn about TPS.
